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: Globally, maternal mental health has been recognized as a priority public health issue. While it is crucial to integrate maternal mental health into mother and child health services, research on strengthening the knowledge and skills of primary healthcare providers on maternal mental health is limited in India. Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of a manual-based training program in improving auxiliary nurse midwives (ANMs) knowledge, attitudes, and skills related to maternal mental health. Methods: The present study adopted an experimental design among ANMs (N = 110) working at primary health centers, Karnataka, India. The participants were randomly assigned to either experimental group (n = 53) or control group (n = 57). The training program delivered interactive sessions based on a facilitator's manual developed specifically for ANMs in India. The assessments were done in both groups at baseline, after the intervention, at three months and at six months using self-rated questionnaires and a case vignette. The descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. Results: After the training program the mean knowledge, attitudes and skills scores were significantly increased in the experimental group ( Conclusion: The training program was found to have a positive impact in enhancing ANMs' knowledge, attitudes, and skills related to maternal mental health in India as there is dearth for mental health professionals in primary care settings.
