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
backgroundThe operating room has a highly professional setting that requires its preparing adequately for various surgical operations and ensuring patient safety. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis study employs a quasi-experimental design and is conducted at a medical center in central Taiwan utilizing convenience sampling. Initially, the control group receives traditional instructional methods for a duration of 1 month (n = 13). Subsequently, the experimental group is exposed to a blended learning model for 1 month (n = 14), the participants of which engaged in a game of jigsaw puzzles and watched videos. Both groups undergo pretesting using various scales prior to the intervention. Upon completion of the 1-month instructional period, post-testing is conducted. The assessment tools employed include the OR Knowledge Inventory, the Taiwan Nurse Stress Checklist, and the DOPS Checklist. Data analysis is performed using SPSS, with both descriptive and inferential statistics applied.
resultsBoth teaching modalities effectively enhanced participants' understanding of operating room protocols. A subsequent two-way mixed-design analysis of variance revealed a significant difference in skill improvement, with the experimental group demonstrating significantly greater improvement than the control group (
conclusionBlended teaching can enhance nurses' knowledge and alleviate their work-related stress. This approach holds promise for reducing attrition rates among operating room nurses, improving healthcare quality, and ensuring patient safety.
