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
introductionIn haemophilia, ever more effective treatment options leading to minimal bleeding make information provision about the disease and its symptoms and when to alert the treatment team increasingly important. However, little is known about how current information provision is perceived and what the needs are.
aimGain in-depth insights into experiences and needs regarding information provision of caregivers of young children with haemophilia, and the perspectives of their healthcare providers (HCPs).
methodsA qualitative study was conducted including 15 semi-structured interviews with caregivers and seven interviews with HCPs. Purposive sampling ensured a varied sample regarding the child's age, type and severity of haemophilia, and treatment strategy. A comprehensive thematic content analysis was subsequently conducted using several phases of coding.
resultsThree main themes were identified. First, caregivers and HCPs indicated that current disease knowledge and information provision regarding haemophilia varies and could be improved. Both groups underlined the importance of adequate information provision to support decision-making and alleviate anxiety. Second, the need for standardized, centralized and tailored information was expressed, preferably digital. Current information is experienced as fragmented and incomplete, leading to lack of structure and uncertainties. Lastly, information provision cannot exist without additional coaching by the multidisciplinary treatment team and peers.
conclusionBoth caregivers and HCPs experience unmet needs regarding information provision as currently performed. Empowerment can be provided by standardized, centralized information tailored to disease severity and phase of life. A digital information platform with visual support, could provide a complete, up-to-date, readily available and reliable resource.
