School Refusal and Parental Illness: A Narrative Review.
Review in Child: care, health and development, 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
introductionSchool refusal (SR) affects many young people and has short- and long-term consequences on their development. Early interventions improve SR prognosis. Among the risk factors studied, parental illness is often mentioned. This narrative review assesses the frequency and strength of the link between SR and parental illness and its specificities.
methodsPsycInfo, PsycArticles, Google Scholar and PubMed were queried, resulting in the inclusion of 18 studies.
resultsThis link exists, but the number of robust studies is limited. While often acknowledged, it is seldom considered the main topic and is more often found with parental mental illness than physical illness. DISCUSSION: This association, observed in both quantitative and qualitative studies, seems to correspond to clinical reality. This review highlights the lack of precise data on parental illnesses in the SR literature and the limited hypotheses put forward to explain this link. This relationship requires greater attention in order to better understand and improve support for these children and adolescents and their families.
