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
aimsAdolescents living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are faced with unique challenges to nutrition management. The current Perth Children's Hospital (PCH) T1D management model includes individualised education at diagnosis and annual reviews. Currently, no group education is provided to develop self-management skills for healthy meal preparation. Teaching Kitchens offers a skills-based program in food literacy and nutrition. This feasibility study explored if a Teaching Kitchens program at PCH engaged adolescents aged between 13 and 17 years, living with T1D.
methodsEach workshop involved a demonstration followed by hands-on cooking and a discussion (e.g. core food-groups, carbohydrate counting, food safety, mindfulness and exercise). Pre- and post-questionnaires were captured electronically from participants and their parents. Quantitative and qualitative data were extracted for content analysis. Feasibility was assessed through ease of recruitment, attendance and retention.
resultsTwenty-one participants (12F;9M) attended sessions held in October 2022 and March 2023. Content analysis identified participants response patterns of learning new culinary skills, especially vegetable and fruit preparation and how to incorporate everyday healthy eating habits. 47.4% reported enjoying making new friends and interacting positively with peers and 94.7% responded, 'yes' to recommending the program. Parent responses included their child's increased confidence and interest in cooking at home. The workshops had an 92.4% attendance and an 88.9% retention rate.
conclusionsThe first Teaching Kitchen in Australia for adolescents with T1D showed positive engagement and feedback. This is a feasible program that could be incorporated into routine clinical care at PCH.
