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 AND
objectivesRecent regulations require that hospitals screen families for health-related social needs (HRSNs), but many hospitals lack the resources and infrastructure to address these needs. Social workers (SWs) and community health workers (CHWs) play a critical role in filling this gap. We aimed to understand SW and CHW perspectives regarding effective strategies for addressing HRSNs during and after inpatient pediatric hospitalizations.
methodsWe conducted semi-structured interviews with inpatient SWs and CHWs at 3 academic children's hospitals exploring participants' experiences connecting families with resources, communicating with medical teams, and facilitating continued support for families after hospital discharge. Interviews were recorded, transcribed, and coded; themes were derived using thematic analysis.
resultsWe interviewed 28 participants (19 SWs, 9 CHWs). We then identified 4 themes (and 5 subthemes): (1) engagement with caregivers (SWs and CHWs aim to balance providing resources and promoting families' self-sufficiency), (2) approach to addressing needs (SWs and CHWs have complementary skillsets, and they find maintaining updated resource repositories a significant challenge), (3) engagement with medical teams (communication with providers focuses on needs impacting medical care or discharge planning), and (4) approach to follow-up (ensuring families have continued support following hospital discharge is a challenge, particularly for select populations).
conclusionsSWs and CHWs offer synergistic and complementary expertise to support families experiencing HRSNs. Participants highlighted opportunities to optimize processes for updating resource repositories and improve longitudinal support for families following hospital discharge.
