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.

TOOLS: Tool I Epilepsy Knowledge Questionnaire. TOOL II: Mothers' Reported Practice Regarding Epilepsy. TOOL III: Zarit Burden Short Version Interview.
resultsAfter implementing FCEM all of the mothers' showed significant improvement in their knowledge levels, both immediately posttest and at three months follow-up compared to about one third of them who showed adequate knowledge at pre-test. Most of mothers had unsatisfactory practice before implementing FCEM. However, these practice had improved notably for the majority both immediately and after three months post implementing FCEM. There was a significant decrease in mothers' care burden following implementation of FCEM as compared to pre- implementing FCEM.
