Resiliency factors relevant to NICU parents' emotional and relational health.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2026. 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
objectivesDespite the stress of having a baby in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), factors that promote adjustment remain unclear. We examined which resiliency factors were associated with family adjustment across the NICU journey. STUDY
designParents with a baby in the NICU (≤2 weeks) completed surveys at three timepoints (during admission (N = 165); 1 month later (N = 85); 3 months later (N = 55)). Surveys included sociodemographics and validated measures of emotional distress, relational outcomes, and resiliency.
resultsMixed models revealed that lower parental distress was associated with: (1) higher mindfulness; (2) more adaptive coping; (3) greater parental self-efficacy (only anxiety); and (4) increased parental time for themselves (only posttraumatic stress). Higher couple satisfaction was associated with more dyadic coping and social support. Stronger parent-child bonding was associated with greater parental self-efficacy.
conclusionMindfulness and coping are important for parental distress. Building parental efficacy, encouraging self-care, and promoting shared coping and social support is important.
