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
aimThis study tested the relationship between the hospitalisation experience and distress among Jewish and Bedouin parents of hospitalised children in the south of Israel.
methodsAn anonymous self-reported questionnaire containing the Distress Thermometer for Parents and the Parental Perceptions of Hospital Care in Children was completed by 210 parents of hospitalised children.
resultsAbout 68.3% of all the parents experienced parental distress, but the Bedouin parents were significantly more distressed than the Jewish parents. No difference was found between Jewish and Bedouin parents in their experience during their child's hospitalisation. Most parents (96.6%) had a positive experience. A negative correlation was found between the parents' experience and the parents' distress.
conclusionThis finding can help improve the medical center's approach to hospitalised children by focusing on their parents' experience and encouraging the medical staff and family to support the parents. This may lower parents' distress and enable a better quality of care for the children and their families.
