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

backgroundVirtual reality (VR) offers immersive training experiences that can address limitations of traditional neonatal resuscitation training. Building on prior U.S.-based research, we evaluated the feasibility of deploying a VR-based neonatal resuscitation model in an international setting.

methodsHealthcare providers at Ho Chi Minh City Children's Hospital in Vietnam participated in a single-arm feasibility study using VR-based training. Sessions employed a team-based approach with physicians, nurses, and allied health professionals and included knowledge review, platform orientation, and a simulated resuscitation scenario based on the Neonatal Resuscitation Program. The simulation was delivered in English with real-time Vietnamese translation. Participants completed post-training surveys assessing satisfaction, realism, and challenges.

resultsAmong 28 participants, 100% recommended VR training; 86% found it more realistic than traditional methods. The mean usefulness score was 4.3/5. Challenges included language barriers and technical issues.

conclusionsVR-based neonatal resuscitation training is feasible and well-received at Ho Chi Minh City Children's Hospital, Vietnam. CLINICAL
