COVID-19 School Disruptions in Early Childhood Education and Children's Early Elementary School Outcomes: Findings from the Smart Beginnings Randomized Clinical Trial.

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 COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted families with young children (age 0-5).

A secondary, exploratory aim sought to determine whether SB attenuated these relations. Path analyses demonstrated that school disruptions in ECE were associated with lower literacy skills at age 6 in letter-word identification (
