Fatigue, anxiety and depression in parents of children with retinoblastoma: a cohort study.
Article in Translational pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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: Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most common primary ocular malignancy in childhood, possibly causing vision loss and even a threat to life. Parents, as the primary caregivers of children with RB, are prone to negative emotions such as fatigue, anxiety, and depression. This study aimed to investigate the longitudinal fluctuations in fatigue, anxiety, and depression in parents of children with RB and the factors influencing them. Methods: Parents of children with RB who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were surveyed using the General Demographic Information Questionnaire, the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) and the Patient Health Questionnaire-2 (PHQ-2). A follow-up questionnaire survey was conducted at the 18 Results: Fatigue, anxiety, and depression among parents of children with RB exhibited fluctuations over time. Independent factors influencing fatigue included the child's sex and parents' self-reported health. The independent factors influencing anxiety included parents' self-reported health and family income. The independent factors influencing depression included parents' self-reported health and family income, with differences being statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions: Parents of children with RB experience severe fatigue, anxiety and depression, which are fluctuated and influenced by multiple factors. Clinical staff should pay attention to early screening and early detection of high-risk groups and formulate reasonable interventions to prevent and reduce these conditions.
