A six-year teaching life supportive first aid program to eventually generate peer trainer pupils: a prospective case control study.

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
backgroundOut of hospital cardiac arrest is a life-threatening condition. To improve the chances of survival, lay-person cardio-pulmonary-resuscitation (CPR) is a crucial factor. Many bystanders fail to react appropriately, even if life supporting first aid (LSFA) programs and campaigns including CPR tried to increase the handling of basic cardiac life support. To achieve an enhanced learning of CPR a pupil's grade after grade teaching program was established in a school with medical students.
methodsThe learning of CPR was investigated in a prospective, case-controlled study at an international school. Pupils (12 ± 3 years old) joining our LSFA courses (n = 538, female: 243, attendance for evaluation: 476) were compared to a control group (n = 129, female: 52, attendance for evaluation: 102). Surveys and quality of CPR (QCPR%) through a computer linked "Resusci Anne" dummy were compared with Chi-squared tests, t-tests pair wisely, and by one-way ANOVA.
resultsKnowledge and skills on the "Resusci Anne" were significantly better in trained grade 9 pupils compared to the control group (QCPR, 59 vs. 25%). The number of LSFA courses each grade 9 student had, correlated with improved practical performance (r
conclusionRepetitive teaching LSFA to grade 5-9 pupil's grade after grade by medical students has been successfully established. Pupils who finish the program will eventually be able to teach LSFA to younger students. This is furthermore a good way of sharing a "learning by teaching" role and it enables to have more pupils as trainers who can provide instruction to a larger number of pupils with the purpose of having a better-trained population in LSFA.
