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

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of introducing neonatal resuscitation training into the undergraduate medical curriculum at Sultan Qaboos University on students' knowledge and confidence during paediatric clinical rotations. Our hybrid curriculum incorporates online lectures, neonatal resuscitation program texts, and high-fidelity simulation training. Knowledge acquisition was assessed through the utilization of multiple-choice assessments as well as pre- and post-examinations. The research focused on statistical variables, specifically the mean, median, SD, and interquartile range, encompassing the 25th, 50th, and 75th percentiles. In addition, psychomotor skills were assessed using a structured instrument, and self-assessment questionnaires were used to evaluate students' satisfaction and confidence. After completing the course, it was observed that all 24 participants showed a significant improvement in their test performance. The mean score increased substantially from 39.58 to 93.75 out of a maximum of 100, while the median increased from 42.4 to 95, indicating a significant improvement in performance. This change was statistically significant, as indicated by a
