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
backgroundParents in England with an intellectual disability may be eligible for support with parenting from Local Authority's Adult services under the Care Act (2014).
methodThis study investigated how adult social workers support these parents through 18 interviews with managers and commissioners and focus groups with 52 social workers, analysed using thematic analysis.
resultsParents with a diagnosed 'intellectual disability' accessed 'gold standard of support' from intellectual disability teams. Parents with a milder or borderline intellectual disability accessed support from the 'general' team if they had two eligible needs under the Care Act. There were inclusive and more restrictive approaches, related to a lack of resources and social worker knowledge and skills, to the recognition of two eligible needs.
conclusionsParents with milder intellectual disabilities are rendered invisible to services due to not having a 'label' or 'obvious' eligibility for support under the Care Act.
