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
Objectives: This study aimed to examine the knowledge of Omani women of childbearing age concerning infant developmental care. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 1,006 Omani women of childbearing age, recruited from outpatient clinics at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital (response rate = 71%). Their knowledge was evaluated using the Knowledge of Infant Development Inventory (KIDI), a validated self-report questionnaire. The KIDI scores were analysed to identify associations with demographic variables such as women's age, education level, employment status and number of children. Data were collected from June 2023 to October 2023. Results: The mean age of the participating women was 31.6 ± 8.4 years. The majority were from Muscat (49.6%), with over half holding bachelor's degrees (57.1%) and 39% being employed. The mean correct response rate for KIDI was 0.63 ± 0.11, suggesting that, on average, the women answered 63% of the questions accurately. Higher education levels and employment status were significantly associated with better knowledge scores ( Conclusions: The findings reveal significant gaps in knowledge regarding child development among Omani women, particularly those with lower levels of educational attainment. Targeted educational interventions are needed to enhance maternal knowledge and support child development in Oman.
