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
Background and objective: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a common complication in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation. For patients with VAP, in addition to active treatment, targeted nursing interventions are required. However, routine nursing care often overlooks various risk factors that may arise during the patient's recovery process. Consequently, this study aims to reveal the impact of proactive risk-prevention nursing interventions on the recovery of intensive care unit (ICU) patients with VAP. Methods: This study was a randomized controlled trial conducted in accordance with the CONSORT guidelines. Using purposive sampling, 90 ICU patients with VAP were randomly classified into a control group and an observation group, with 45 patients in each. The control group received routine nursing interventions, while the observation group was treated with proactive risk-prevention nursing interventions. Primary outcome measures: The mechanical ventilation time, ICU stay, and body temperature recovery time were compared. Secondary outcome measures: White blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil count (NC), inflammatory cytokine levels, psychological comfort levels (assessed using the General Comfort Questionnaire), and patient satisfaction with nursing interventions were compared. Results: The observation group exhibited shorter mechanical ventilation duration, ICU stay, and body temperature recovery compared to the control group ( Conclusion: Proactive risk-prevention nursing interventions can reduce mechanical ventilation duration and ICU stay, decrease inflammatory cytokine levels, improve psychological comfort, and enhance patient satisfaction with nursing interventions in ICU patients with VAP.
