1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: The propagation of basic cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training can increase patient survival and reduce brain injury; however, the conventional educational approach has shifted towards e-learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effect of online CPR training on the knowledge and performance of the Red Crescent Student Association Volunteers. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted on 70 Red Crescent Student Association Volunteers. The participants were allocated to intervention and control groups using a simple random allocation method. The primary study outcomes were measured using a validated knowledge assessment and a CPR performance checklist, both validated according to the 2020 American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines. These tools were administered to all participants before and one month after the intervention. The intervention group received one-hour online training sessions per day over three days. The educational content, including the topics related to basic adult CPR training, was formulated according to the 2020 AHA guidelines; however, the control group didn't receive any online educational program. The collected data were analyzed using the SPSS16 software at a significance level of Results: There was no significant difference in demographic variables between the two groups ( Conclusion: Booster CPR training with e-learning was associated with improved knowledge and practice of the Red Crescent Student Association Volunteers. Therefore, this method may be considered as a supplementary training approach, especially in emergencies like emerging pandemics, where traditional training methods are limited
