The impact of an educational intervention on neonatal intensive care unit nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of parental participation in kangaroo mother care.

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 this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the education interventions on NICU nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of parental participation in kangaroo mother care (KMC) in NICU.
methodA quasi-experimental pretest/posttest nonequivalent group design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the education interventions on NICU nurses' knowledge, attitudes and perceptions of parental participation in KMC delivered in the neonatal intensive care units at three hospitals. 160 nurses participated in the study, with a division of 80 in the educational group, and 80 in the non-educational group.
resultsThe results showed that the educational group was statistically different in knowledge post-intervention (t = -2.819, df = 79, p≤0.001). The pre-intervention mean attitude for the educational group was 19.81 (SD = 4.3). The findings expressed that the educational group was statistically different in attitude in the post-intervention phase (t = -3.66, df = 79, p≤0.001). The results reflect a significant effect in the educational group regarding nurses' perspectives of parental participation post-intervention (t = 5.496, df = 79, p≤0.001).
conclusionOur findings showed that providing nurses with additional education increased their knowledge, improved their attitudes, and enhanced their perceptions of parental support in NICU. Providing staff with an educational intervention about KMC in NICU can enhance nursing knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of parental participation in neonate care in the NICU.
