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
Objective: School re-entry after a cancer-related interruption may involve academic, social, emotional, and health-related adjustment. Evidence from school personnel remains limited. This study explored school personnel's perspectives on school re-entry among children and adolescents undergoing or having completed childhood cancer treatment. Methods: This qualitative descriptive study was conducted in Türkiye with 12 school personnel recruited through purposive maximum-variation and snowball sampling: eight teachers, two school administrators, one school counselor, and one school nurse. Data were collected through online semi-structured interviews between April 2025 and January 2026 and analyzed using a team-based inductive thematic analysis informed by Braun and Clarke's six phases. Results: Three analytic domains encompassing eight themes were identified: academic and health-related adjustment; social and emotional reintegration; and school-side support needs and coordination gaps. Participants described school absence as involving academic disruption, weakened belonging, peer-related vulnerability, and a need for individualized adjustment. Support was often dependent on individual initiative, with limited school-useable health information, unclear role boundaries, and insufficient coordination. Conclusions: School personnel described school re-entry as a gradual, individualized process requiring coordinated communication, planning, and follow-up. The school-side needs identified may inform future interdisciplinary models linking children and families, schools, and health care teams. Pediatric oncology nurses may contribute to communication and planning; however, role-specific recommendations require direct investigation with nurses, children, and families.
