Enhancing first-aid self-efficacy: A randomized trial comparing three interactive educational ınterventions.
Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundEffective first-aid education is a critical public health strategy to reduce the burden on emergency services. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of three interactive first-aid training modalities (case-, video-, and drama-based) on university students' first-aid self-efficacy. MATERIALS AND
methodsA three-arm randomized controlled trial with a pretest-post-test design was conducted. The study included 93 university students, randomly assigned to three intervention groups (
resultsMore than 95% of the participants were unmarried, and more than 50% in each study group were female. Post-test mean scale scores were highest in the case-based group (194.16 ± 25.17), followed by the video-based (190.61 ± 24.08), drama-based (168.22 ± 54.37), and unstructured groups (162.29 ± 45.19). Baseline sociodemographic assessments revealed a statistically significant difference in gender distribution across groups ( CONCLUSıON: Interactive first-aid training, regardless of the specific modality, is effective in enhancing students' self-efficacy. These findings suggest that educators can flexibly employ a range of interactive strategies to achieve comparable outcomes in prehospital emergency care training. Interactive first-aid training meets essential health policy benchmarks for emergency preparedness, offering educators flexible, effective, and interchangeable modalities to enhance public self-efficacy.
