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: The present study aimed to evaluate the knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) about pharmacovigilance (PV) practices among health care professionals, that is, pharmacists and nursing staff before and after educational intervention in a tertiary care hospital. Methods: This was an observational and questionnaire-based pre- and post-test educational interventional study involving pharmacists and nursing staff. A 15-point prevalidated questionnaire on KAP about PV was distributed to pharmacists and nursing staff before and after educational intervention. Ethical clearance was obtained before the start of the study. Results: A total of 120 pharmacists and 60 nursing staff participated in pre- and post-KAP questionnaire study. The KAP of PV when compared before (pre-KAP) and after (post-KAP) the educational intervention, the correct response rates were found to be statistically significant ( Conclusion: This study proves that KAP of PV and adverse drug reaction reporting in routine practice can be improved by imparting knowledge about PV and hands-on training on adverse drug reaction reporting among pharmacists and nursing staff who are the backbone of health care system.
