Exploring the Interactions Between Healthcare Professionals and Parents of Children With Feeding Problems: A Qualitative Study.
Article in Scandinavian journal of caring sciences, 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
AIMS AND
objectivesTo describe how healthcare professionals and parents of children with feeding problems experience their interactions. METHODOLOGICAL
designA qualitative descriptive design was used, with the Family-Centred Care (FCC) model as the interpretive framework. RESEARCH
methodsSeven healthcare professionals and six parents participated in individual semi-structured interviews. Data were analysed using thematic analysis with inductive coding. Trustworthiness was addressed through collaborative analysis, audit trail, reflexivity and triangulation.
resultsThe findings resulted in the overarching theme: 'Navigating the personal and structural effects on healthcare interactions'. Three main themes were developed from the participants' descriptions: 'Connecting through knowledge', 'Why communication matters' and 'Finding a way through the system'. The findings show that healthcare interactions are shaped by the level of personal and organizational knowledge in the surrounding environment, the quality of communication and the structure of the healthcare system. STUDY LIMITATIONS: All participants were Swedish-speaking from a specific region of Sweden, which limits the applicability of the findings to other cultural or healthcare contexts.
conclusionHealthcare interactions are complex and shaped by both personal and systemic factors that influence the experience over time as families move through the care process. Family-centred care for children with feeding problems should be a continuous goal in healthcare settings. To transition from 'doing for' to 'doing with' families, healthcare systems must prioritize multidisciplinary coordination, provide education for primary care professionals and address systemic barriers to ensure access and continuity of care. Achieving genuine family-centred care requires recognizing parents as essential partners on the healthcare team.
