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
introductionThe JEEViKA program, a rural livelihood initiative, sought to uplift Self-Help Group (SHG) cadres in Bihar, India. However, health-related issues remained a challenge due to limited attention and health literacy among SHG members and mid-level managers. This study aimed to enhance health knowledge among mid-level managers through a technical course developed by the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) Patna in collaboration with JEEViKA and Project Concern International (PCI), focusing on integrating health aspects with economic development.
methodsA comprehensive training needs assessment identified gaps in health knowledge among mid-level managers. A technical course curriculum was developed, comprising 20 topics covering health, nutrition, and sanitation. The course was delivered virtually to six batches of mid-level managers. Pre- and post-training assessments measured knowledge improvement.
resultsInitial assessment revealed that 71 (38.8%) participants had good, while 90 (49.2%) had average health knowledge scores. The virtual course led to improved knowledge levels, with 538 (89.7%) out of 600 total participants achieving good or excellent scores in post-training assessments. Specific knowledge gaps related to maternal, infant, and child health were addressed throughout the course. DISCUSSION: The study underscores the importance of equipping mid-level managers with health literacy to effectively integrate health components into livelihood projects. The collaboration between AIIMS Patna, JEEViKA, and PCI highlights the potential of knowledge-based interventions to bridge health gaps in rural communities. The success of the virtual course emphasizes the feasibility of online training to enhance health knowledge and underscores the symbiotic relationship between health and economic development.
