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.

Abstract
Background: Preschoolers attending nurseries typically spend a significant period of their day in nurseries, where they consume approximately half or more of their daily meals under the supervision of nursery staff. As the primary caregivers during this time, nursery staff play a vital role in forming children's eating habits and influencing their nutritional intake. Thus, assessing the nutritional knowledge and practices of nursery staff is essential. Objective: To assess the nutritional knowledge and practices of nursery staff members. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among nursery staff. A self-administered questionnaire was used to assess the nutritional knowledge and practices of the nursery staff members. Results: A total of 53.2% of the nursery staff exhibited high levels of nutritional knowledge, whereas 3.2% showed low nutritional understanding. Additionally, approximately 50% of the nursery staff displayed excellent dietary behaviors, while 6.4% showed inadequate standards. Conclusion: Nursery staff possess preliminary nutrition knowledge but need guidance and training sessions in nutrition that may enhance their essential role in improving preschoolers' nutritional status and health.
