1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivesto analyze appreciation and coping strategies of children hospitalized for COVID-19 and their primary caregivers during the illness and hospitalization process.

methodsa qualitative and exploratory study, based on the McCubbin & McCubbin model (1993), with 25 participants: ten children hospitalized for COVID-19 and 15 primary caregivers. A semi-structured interview was used, and data were subjected to reflective thematic analysis.

resultschildren reported a predominantly negative appreciation of hospitalization, marked by fear, homesickness, pain, and discomfort with hospital routine. Their coping strategies included play, electronic devices, hygiene, and adherence to treatment. Caregivers also expressed negative assessments related to fear of death, isolation, and distress. Their strategies involved spirituality, religiosity, love for their children, and support from professionals and family members. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: coping strategies differed between children and caregivers, highlighting the importance of care sensitive to the dyad's needs.
