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
objectiveTo explore student nurses' experiences and perceptions of obstetric violence.
methodsA qualitative exploratory design was adopted. Fourteen nursing students who completed the obstetrics and gynecology nursing course and clinical practice were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using in-depth, semi-structured interviews.
resultsThematic analysis revealed two conceptual levels. Micro-level themes included: Lack of Information and Consent, Verbal Harassment, Loss of Professional Value (with subthemes Barrier to Education and Negative Role Modelling), and Lack of Effective Communication (with subthemes Language Barriers and Use of Vulgar Language). The macro-level theme, Seeking for Solutions, comprised the subthemes Awareness and Empathizing. Students emphasized the emotional and ethical challenges they faced when witnessing disrespectful maternity care, which often conflicted with their formal training.
conclusionsWitnessing obstetric violence had a profound psychological and educational impact on student nurses, often experienced as traumatic. Findings highlight the need to address obstetric violence in nursing education to strengthen awareness, empathy, and commitment to respectful, womancentered maternity care.
