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

Aim: A pilot randomised controlled trial to assess the feasibility and relative effectiveness of a community CPR train-the-trainer model using either a traditional face-to-face or blended learning approach (video supported face-to-face training with the provision of a multimodal 'CPR lesson card' containing visual prompts and a QR linked training video). A 'generational' recruitment strategy was used to evaluate knowledge degradation across a series of peer-led training episodes. Methods: Participants ( Results: In total, 115 CPR assessments were conducted (57 intervention, 58 control) following episodes of intergenerational peer-led training. Pass rates were 96.5 % (55/57, 95 % CI: 87.9-99.6 %) in the intervention group and 75.9 % (44/58, 95 % CI: 62.8-86.1 %) in the control group (Fisher's Exact Conclusion: Peer-to-peer CPR training in the community is feasible through several generations of knowledge transfer. The use of a simple multimodal training aid appears to enhance performance beyond the first generation and may provide a scalable, cost-effective adjunct to traditional CPR training.
