Assessment of quality of life in children with cerebral palsy: A parent-reported questionnaire-based study.
Article in Journal of oral biology and craniofacial research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The quality of life (QoL) of children with cerebral palsy (CP) needs to be assessed using a CP-specific questionnaire, such as the CP-QoL questionnaire. This study was conducted to assess the QoL of children with CP using the CP-QoL questionnaire and correlate QoL scores with patient demographics. The caregivers of 155 children (3-15 years) attending the NITTE centre of AB Shetty Memorial Institute of Dental Sciences were enrolled in the study. The caregivers were given the Kannada translation of the parent-proxy version of the CP-QoL questionnaire. Analysis and scoring were carried out using the prescribed methodology. For validation, Cronbach's alpha was computed for every question. Analysis was done on the impact of demographic profile on QoL. A CP-QoL survey was given 155 caregivers of children with cerebral palsy (96 male and 61 female). The youngsters under study had an overall QoL score of 25.24 ± 6.14. The children's QoL was significantly impacted by age (P < 0.05). The QoL was not substantially impacted by gender (P > 0.05). Overall, reliability and internal consistency were determined to be good. (Alpha Cronbach's > 0.7). Children with CP have a lower quality of life as assessed using the CP-QoL questionnaire.
