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
In the dynamic healthcare landscape, nurses must develop life skills beyond clinical expertise to provide effective patient care and ensure professional growth. This study evaluates the effectiveness of a structured life skills training program for first-year B.Sc. Nursing students in Tamil Nadu, India. This true experimental pre-test-post-test design study was conducted in six randomly selected nursing colleges in Trichy district, Tamil Nadu. The sample included 257 first-year B.Sc. Nursing students, with 126 in the experimental group and 131 in the control group. The eight-week Life Skills Training Program consisted of weekly two-hour sessions. The experimental group showed significant improvements in critical thinking (F=64.26, p<0.001), decision making (F=35.02, p<0.001), problem solving (F=77.54, p<0.001) and coping with emotions (F=39.03, p<0.001) compared to the control group. Associations were found between life skills and socio-demographic variables such as the number of friends, hobbies, reason for choosing nursing and interest in the course.
