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
aimThe aim of this scoping review was to identify, examine, and summarize available evidence regarding psychosocial supports provided to children with a chronic disease when admitted to hospital and their parents.
methodThe JBI methodology for conducting and reporting scoping reviews was followed. Seven databases were searched, 15 181 titles and abstracts were screened, and data from the included studies were extracted. The psychosocial supports were grouped into the following domains: emotional and psychological, informational, social, spiritual, and practical. Data describing ho the psychosocial support was offered within each domain were thematically analysed.
resultsA total of 59 studies met inclusion criteria. Emotional and psychological interventions were the most frequently utilized. Most interventions were multimodal, delivered in person, and healthcare professionals and researchers served as primary administrators of the interventions. A vast majority of the interventions yielded positive outcomes, and there were no reported harms.
conclusionComprehensive and multimodal psychosocial interventions should be developed and implemented among hospitalized children with a chronic disease and their parents. The predominance of emotional and psychological support interventions reflects the critical need to address the mental health impacts of chronic illness and hospitalization on children with a chronic disease and their families.
