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
Introduction: nearly 80% of hospital patients called for a peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) for important medications and fluid therapies. Peripherally inserted intravenous cannulation is the most common procedure done in patient care delivery. Even though insertion of IV cannula is essential and common, there are different limitations starting from insertion without vibrant indication to improper management and care of these devices. Patients can experience multiple adverse events during the insertion. The objective of this study was to investigate the care of peripheral intravenous cannulation by nurses and midwives in the Amhara Region, Ethiopia, 2022. Methods: an institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted. Data was collected using structured interviewer-administered questionnaires plus an observational checklist. A simple random sampling technique was used to select 415 nurses and midwives. Data were entered using Epi Data version 3.1 and analyzed using SPSS version 25. Bi-variable and multivariable analyses were conducted to examine the association between independent and outcome variables. Results: the findings of this study revealed that 4.9% of respondents had good practice for the care of peripheral intravenous cannulation. Work experience (AOR= 7.269, 95% CI= 1.68, 31.40), having special training on care of peripheral intravenous cannulation (AOR= 10.12, 95% CI= 4.32, 19.45) and presence of protocol guideline (AOR=3.31, 95% CI= 2.83, 12.87) were significantly associated with good practice on the care and maintenance of peripheral intravenous cannulation. Conclusion: findings showed that poor peripheral intravenous cannulation practice and care which was predicted by work experience, existence of guidelines, and training. As a result, Nurses and midwifes must keep up to speed with focused in-service training, access, and/or follow thorough protocol guidelines for the management of peripheral intravenous cannulation.
