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
Purpose: The increasing burden of caring for children with disabilities brings about various psychological and physiological difficulties for mothers. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between chronotype characteristics and eating disorders and intuitive eating behavior tendencies of mothers with disabled children. Methods: The study was a case-control study conducted in a private rehabilitation center in Turkey and included 50 mothers of disabled children with cerebral palsy and 56 mothers of healthy children. Socio-demographic information, Morningness-Eveningness Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire-13 (EDE-Q-13), Intuitive Eating Scale-2 (IES-2) and anthropometric measurements were taken from the participants. Results: Mothers of children with disabilities had significantly lower chronotype scores (47.20 ± 4.65) compared with mothers of healthy children (53.66 ± 5.31) ( Conclusions: Mothers with disabled children were found to have higher predisposition to evening chronotype, eating disorder scores and use of medical sleep medication than mothers with healthy children. Because this situation increases the risk of diseases such as obesity, cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome, it reveals the necessity of special nutrition and health follow-up programmes.
