Health care professionals' experiences of caring for children with severe epidermolysis bullosa.

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
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) comprises a group of genetically and clinically heterogeneous disorders characterized by skin fragility and blistering. It is currently incurable, and care is complex because of the rarity of the disease. Epidermolysis bullosa has a major impact on the lives of people living with it and on their families. In this study, we aimed to explore health care professionals' (HCPs) experiences of treating and following up on children with EB and their families. Nine HCPs from several health care disciplines participated in semi-structured interviews, which were analyzed through reflexive thematic analysis. Two main themes were identified: caring as an act of balance and facilitating collaboration. All participants experienced the following as challenging: (a) balancing between professional decisions and the provision of guidance to parents and (b) dealing with their own emotions. More systematic research is needed on the psychological impact of caring for children with EB and their families on HCPs.
