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
Background: Parents' inability to generate meaning in events related to their child, especially a chronic illness, leads to uncertainty. This could negatively impact the management and outcome of their child and family well-being. Nevertheless, there is no available tool to measure parental uncertainty in Indonesia. Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Indonesian version of the Parent's Perception of Uncertainty Scale (PPUS) using an exploratory approach. Methods: This was a psychometric properties study conducted in 2020 among parents of children with genetic conditions, i.e., congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), and Down syndrome (DS), recruited from pediatric endocrinology clinics in secondary and tertiary hospitals, and a genetic research center in Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia. The original PPUS was translated and back-translated into Indonesian and English. Principal Axis Factoring (PAF) was performed to measure its validity and reliability. IBM SPSS version 26 and JASP version 0.18 were utilized to perform descriptive and parallel analysis, respectively. Partitioning Around Medoids (PAM) was analyzed using RStudio version 2026.05.0 on R version 4.6.0. Results: A total of 259 parents (105 fathers and 154 mothers) of 170 children with CAH, T1DM, and DS completed the questionnaire. Samples were adequate (KMO = 0.857), and factor analysis was feasible (Bartlett Conclusion: Despite requiring further refinement in a homogeneous sample, the Indonesian PPUS demonstrated potential use in research on parental uncertainty and proposing future nursing interventions aimed at improving family-centered care.
