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

Background: This study assessed how an educational intervention affected healthcare providers' knowledge and practice of pharmacovigilance (PV) principles, with an emphasis on enhancing the reporting ADRs. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, a structured questionnaire was utilised. A pre- and post-educational intervention design was used to assess the influence of a PV workshop on ADRs reporting in Jordan. The PV educational workshop was a one-year interactive session that addressed core PV principles. Results: A total of 250 healthcare providers participated in the study, including 14 general physicians (5.6%), 15 specialist physicians (6%), 93 pharmacists (37.2%), 51 clinical pharmacists (20.4%), 58 nurses (23.2%), 3 midwives (1.2%), and 16 others (6.4%). A positive trend in participants' familiarity with the PV term was shown, with 69.6% of respondents expressing improvement post-workshop. After the workshop, more than 70% of participants agreed that the reporting of ADRs increased. The utilisation of electronic forms for reporting ADRs was reported to be increased among 68.4% of participants. Regarding the improvement in the awareness of delayed ADRs, clinical pharmacists had higher knowledge scores (3.04) compared to general physicians (2.50; Conclusion: The educational intervention improved healthcare providers' knowledge and practices related to PV and ADR reporting. These findings highlight the importance of targeted training initiatives in strengthening PV systems and promoting a culture of safety within healthcare settings.
