1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Adequate knowledge among nursing professionals toward hospital infection control measures related to hemodialysis (HD) services is essential to decrease infection among patients. Objective: This study assessed nursing professionals' knowledge about hospital infection control measures related to HD services and the effect of training interventions. Settings and Designs: It was a single group, a pre-post-interventional study conducted on nursing professionals of a single apex medical college of Haryana. Materials and Methods: A pretested questionnaire consisting of two parts was used as a study tool. Statistical Analysis: Various statistical tests such as paired Results: The pre-intervention group had a lower mean knowledge score (mean knowledge = 90.2786, strongly disagree [SD] = 15.52682, standard error [SE] = 1.09518) and then the post-intervention mean knowledge score (mean knowledge = 137.5622, SD = 9.72252, SE = 0.68577). Conclusions: The training program or educational intervention proved very useful for enhancing nursing professional's knowledge about hospital infection control measures related to HD services.
