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
Objective: To examine the effect of a structured, DBT-based parental resilience training program on non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and related psychological symptoms in adolescents with cancer. Methods: This pre-post study without a control group enrolled 38 adolescent cancer patients (aged 13-18) with a history of NSSI, along with one of their parents. From March 2023 to May 2024, parents participated in a 4-week intervention consisting of three structured skills-training sessions (90 minutes each), weekly family group skills training, ongoing telephone counseling, and weekly consultations with a psychological support team. The Ottawa Self-Injury Scale was used to assess NSSI recurrence in adolescents. Anxiety and depression symptoms in adolescents were measured using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7) and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). Parental resilience was evaluated with the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC). Results: All administered questionnaires were fully completed and valid, yielding a 100% response rate. Following the 4-week intervention, the recurrence rate of NSSI was 13.16% (5/38). Adolescents demonstrated significant reductions in both GAD-7 and PHQ-9 scores from pre- to post-treatment (P < 0.05), indicating marked improvements in anxiety and depression symptoms. Parental CD-RISC scores increased significantly (P < 0.05), reflecting enhanced resilience. Subgroup analyses revealed that these improvements were significant across both genders and age groups (<15 years vs. ≥15 years), with no statistically significant differences in the magnitude of change between subgroups (P > 0.05). Conclusions: A short-term, DBT-based parental resilience training program may improve caregiver resilience, reduce adolescent anxiety and depression, and lower short-term NSSI recurrence in adolescents with cancer. However, the lack of a control group and short follow-up limit the generalizability of findings. Further controlled studies with larger samples and longer follow-up are warranted.
