Quality of Discharge Teaching Scale Validity, Reliability, and Measurement Invariance in Pediatric Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant.
Article in Journal of pediatric hematology/oncology nursing. 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
BackgroundAdherence to treatment following hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is critical, yet the complexity and demands of postdischarge regimens often lead to suboptimal adherence among families unprepared for the transition home. Discharge teaching has been reliably evaluated using the Quality of Discharge Teaching Scale (QDTS) across several health conditions, with higher scores associated with improved parental readiness and pediatric health outcomes. This scale may be helpful in identifying areas for improvement in pediatric HSCT discharge teaching if validated in a pediatric HSCT population.MethodThis study recruited 120 caregivers of children who recently underwent HSCT to complete the QDTS along with measures of parental efficacy/control, psychological distress, and psychosocial risk factors. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to examine the factor structure and measurement invariance of the scale, while internal reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha and correlations with related constructs.ResultsCFA showed that the QDTS had adequate model fit and was invariant across biological sex and income, but not diagnosis. The QDTS demonstrated good internal reliability (content α = .76; delivery α = .90) and criterion validity, with significant correlations with the subscales of related constructs. Independent samples
