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

backroundThe study was planned to evaluate the safety attitudes of mothers with children aged 0–6 years towards home accidents and their self-efficacy in first aid.

methodIn this cross-sectional study, 438 mothers aged 18 years and older participated. Self-completed questionnaires, sociodemographic and home accident history questions, the Scale for Identifying Maternal Safety Precautions for Home Accidents in Children 0–6 Years of Age, and the First Aid Self-Efficacy in Home Accidents Scale were employed as data collection tools.

resultsThe study revealed that 35.2% of mothers with children aged 0–6 years reported experiencing at least one home accident. Among the reported incidents, it was found that 41.6% were attributed to falls, while 25.3% were related to burns, making them the most prevalent types of accidents. The mean attitude score of the women towards home accidents was 64.34 ± 15.03, and the mean total score of first aid knowledge was 27.14 ± 8.78. In our study, logistic regression analysis revealed that parents' employment status, having more than one child in the household, low-income level, and history of home accidents in the household increased the risk of experiencing home accidents for children.

conclusionIt was determined that mothers' safety precautions and first aid practices were inadequate. Education, employment status, and income level were found to affect safety and first-aid attitudes towards home accidents. When our results are evaluated, it is recommended to organize training for mothers about home accidents, safety precautions, and first aid practices.
