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
Objective: This study aimed to compare the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of parturients and nurses regarding fall prevention among parturients, with the goal of understanding the cognitive factors contributing to post-delivery fall. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among obstetric nurses and women in obstetric ward within 2 days after vaginal delivery. The survey instrument included a self-design questionnaire comprising a demographic information sheet and a KAP questionnaire, which demonstrated acceptable reliability and validity. Results: A total of 705 nurses and 1,220 parturients completed the survey. Over half of both nurses and parturients exhibited reasonably good knowledge, positive attitudes and appropriate practices related to fall prevention. Significant associations were identified between the education level of parturients and their knowledge and attitudes. Nurses scored lower in the attitude dimension compared to parturients (4.32 ± 1.01 vs. 4.84 ± 0.36, Conclusion: Nurses should focus on enhancing the fall practices of parturients by emphasizing key points for fall prevention and providing guidance in situations of improper behaviors (e.g., unaccompanied activities). Further education programs for nurses should prioritize increasing their confidence and proficiency in fall prevention.
