Taking stock of psychosocial rehabilitation in children and adolescents: a systematic review with meta-analysis.

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: Psychosocial rehabilitation for children and adolescents with physical illnesses remains underdeveloped and poorly defined. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to consolidate current research findings. Design: We searched Medline, PsycINFO, Scopus, Web of Science, and a guideline registry, with the last search conducted on August 30, 2023. Subjects/patients: Children and adolescents with physical indications. Methods: Eligible studies reported time-limited rehabilitation programs conducted in dedicated facilities, excluding those focused on psychiatric conditions. Results: In all, 18 studies were eligible ( Conclusion: Psychosocial rehabilitation shows promising effects, but stronger evidence is needed to validate its efficacy. The lack of standardized definitions and procedures hinders progress. Future research should focus on randomized controlled trials and larger samples to optimize rehabilitation practices and improve outcomes for young patients with somatic conditions, resulting in evidence-based guidelines.
