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
Needlestick injuries (NSIs) represent a significant occupational hazard among nurses, as they may result in serious consequences, including transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis B and C viruses. Therefore, this study primarily aimed to assess knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) related to needlestick injury prevention among nurses at Hospital Canselor Tuanku Muhriz (HCTM) regarding NSIs. A cross-sectional study was conducted using a self-administered questionnaire distributed through universal sampling to 352 nurses at HCTM. Data collected included demographic characteristics and KAP scores related to NSIs. Among the respondents, 14.4% self-reported history of NSI during their professional duties, with 9.9% reporting at least one such event within their current department. No significant association was identified between a self-reported history of NSI and the nurses' practice scores (
