What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionSubstance use is a common reason for involvement in the child welfare system and associated with poor outcomes for families, such as repeat maltreatment and loss of parental rights; however, rates of substance use treatment engagement among parents in child welfare are low. The current study examines the role and impact of substance use on parents' experiences with the child welfare system and substance use treatment.
methodsThe study conducted semi-structured interviews with parents currently or recently involved in child welfare and substance use treatment (N = 29; 86.2 % female; 75.9 % White).
resultsThemes from qualitative analyses related to (1) the role of substance use in child welfare cases, (2) the challenges of managing substance use treatment and child welfare requirements, and (3) perspectives on the role of parenting in substance use treatment and recovery.
conclusionsParents with substance use involved in child welfare face unique challenges when addressing substance use and child welfare requirements. Findings underscore the importance of involving those with lived experience in policy and decision-making; ensuring evidence-based practices specifically targeting parents with substance use are available; and ensuring child welfare personnel receive training and education in addiction and substance use.
