Effectiveness of Developmentally Supportive Education Program on Nursing Knowledge of Retinopathy of Prematurity in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
Article in Iranian journal of nursing and midwifery research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is a preventable cause of childhood blindness. India accounts for nearly 10% of the worldwide estimate of blindness and visual impairment due to ROP. Nurses are pillars of neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and play a critical role in the prevention and management of ROP. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of developmentally supportive education program on knowledge regarding prevention and management of ROP among nurses working in NICU. Materials and Methods: A hospital based pre-experimental, one group pre-test-post-test study was carried out among 32 staff nurses working in the NICU of a tertiary care center during January to February 2019. Knowledge regarding the prevention and management of ROP was assessed before and after the implementation of developmentally supportive education program using a structured knowledge questionnaire. Results: Pre-test knowledge score was mean (Standard Deviation [SD]) 9.00 (3.68) and after the educational program post-test knowledge score was found to be mean (SD) 14.53 (2.39). Paired Conclusions: Developmentally supportive educational program can be used as an effective intervention for improving the knowledge regarding ROP among nurses in NICU.
