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
aimThe aim of the study was to describe the knowledge and practice of simulation among health tutors with a view to promoting the use of simulation in health training institutions in the Northern and Upper East Regions of Ghana.
designThe study was quantitative research that utilized a descriptive cross-sectional survey to describe the knowledge and practice of simulation in teaching.
methodsA structured questionnaire was used to collect data from 138 health tutors who were enumerated through the census for the study. The return rate was 87%, representing 120 health tutors who finally completed the study. The data were presented by means of descriptive statistics.
resultsThe findings of the study revealed that few participants had adequate knowledge of simulation. The study also found that a slight majority of the participants practiced simulation in teaching. The study further found that there was a positive correlation between health tutors' knowledge and the practice of simulation. Indicating that an increase in the health tutors' knowledge of simulation is associated with an increase in their practice of simulation.
