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
The WHO European Programme of Work, 2020-2025 'United Action for Better Health in Europe', backed up by the Regional Director's vision, recognizes the need to invest in public health leadership towards addressing the multifaceted public health challenges in the WHO European Region. The WHO Regional Office for Europe in collaboration with the Italian National Institute of Health (Istituto Superiore di Sanità-ISS) developed the first European Public Health Leadership Course to support Member States in building their capacity. The course was delivered in blended modality over a period of 3 weeks (7-25 November 2022). It was structured according to the Competency-Based Education model and Problem-Based Learning methodology. Data analyses were conducted on the cohort of the course's 'Completers'. The formative assessment was conducted by a pre-post training questionnaire, while the summative assessment included three evaluation tools, in which participants were required to get a minimum overall mean score of 75/100 to pass the course. Thirty-eight participants passed all the summative tests out of 39 enrolled. The analysis of the multiple-choice questions showed an increase in knowledge. Survey results showed a high level of satisfaction. The course offered a mix of both theoretical and practical approaches, allowing participants to gain in-depth knowledge and develop skills that can be applied in their daily work. The successful completion of the course is expected to promote the development of the public health workforce in the eastern and southern parts of the WHO European Region.
