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
Background: Children with disabilities receiving long-term enteral nutrition (EN) frequently struggle with feeding issues. This study aims to develop and validate a questionnaire to assess tube feeding challenges and nutritional problems among this group of children. Methods: In this survey-based study, data was collected via an online survey of mothers or caregivers of children with disabilities receiving long-term EN. The questionnaire was prepared following a literature analysis of nasogastric, gastrostomy and jejunostomy-related complications in children. The validation of the tool was conducted with three experts in the field, followed by its translation into Arabic. It was then pilot-tested on six mothers of children with disabilities who receive long-term EN. The reliability of the questionnaire was assessed using Cronbach's-alpha coefficient and measurement of test-retest inter-rater reliability. Results: Twenty-four children were included in this study; their median age was 4.7 years. The value of Cronbach's-alpha (α = 0.742) suggested good reliability of the tool items among the study sample. The test-retest reliability assessed by correlation coefficients showed a strong correlation for most items; the r-value of the overall tool was 0.922, Conclusion: Strong test-retest reliability was demonstrated by the developed EN feeding problem questionnaire. Suggesting that the questionnaire is reliable and valid for utilisation in children with disabilities.
