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
backgroundMental disorders are a global concern, affecting millions worldwide. Despite effective therapies, societal stigma toward mental illness persists, hindering access to healthcare and perpetuating negative stereotypes. These prejudiced attitudes are also present in nursing professionals and impact the quality of care provided by them. This study aimed to explore the impact of a month-long residential psychiatry training program on the attitudes of nursing undergraduate students toward mental illness. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis was a longitudinal study with pre-post design conducted at a government mental health hospital and training institute in north India using convenient sampling. The Community Attitude Towards Mental Illness (CAMI) Scale, which has subscales of Authoritarianism, Benevolence, Social Restrictiveness, and Community Mental Health Ideology was used to measure the attitudes towards the mentally ill in nursing students before and after the training program. Descriptive statistics were used to present the data while paired t-tests and McNemar test were used for analysis.
resultsA total of 970 students were included. A significant improvement in Social Restrictiveness, Community Mental Health Ideology, and the total CAMI score was noted post-training (
conclusionsThe results emphasize the effectiveness of combining theoretical knowledge with real-life exposure in mental health nursing. Despite limitations, like a single-center study and no control group, the study's pre-post design and large sample size contribute valuable insights.
