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: The Prone Pillow for Pregnant Patients using the (4P) 2.0 prototype was developed to address the unique challenges in proning pregnant patients with COVID-19 in a tertiary hospital. A lack of training in proning particularly pregnant and overweight patients has led to patients with severe ARDS not receiving this life-saving intervention. Objective: The current study aimed to evaluate the impact of an interprofessional simulation-based training program on providers' perception, knowledge, and confidence in proning of pregnant patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome due to COVID-19 or other causes. Methods: A total of 124 healthcare workers who took part in the management of patients in COVID wards and ICUs participated in the study. The simulation workshop was conducted on May 2022 and the participants were divided into interprofessional teams. Standardized patients and mannequins were used to simulate patients with ARDS. Standardized checklists for proning were used. The participants were debriefed after. The participants completed pre- and post-simulation questionnaires. Results: After the simulation workshop, the participants' perception on the benefit of prone position in the ventilation of patients with ARDS, level of confidence in handling proning of pregnant patients, comfort in speaking to patient and next of kin regarding prone ventilation, and knowledge on proning significantly improved. Subgroup analysis showed statistically significant improvements in knowledge scores among registered nurses, resident physicians, and participants with varying degrees of experience managing COVID-19 patients and proning pregnant patients. Majority of participants deemed it was easy to turn patients in the prone position using the supportive pillow as well as expressed confidence in doing the procedure. Conclusion: Interprofessional simulation-based training of healthcare workers improved providers' knowledge and confidence in proning pregnant patients. Simulation based training also improved the comfort of the healthcare professional in advising the patient and next of kin on the benefits of proning.
