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

Educational strategies based on technological models that integrate the dimensions of prevention, screening, and treatment of diabetic foot ulcers are emerging as promising methods to improve nurses' knowledge, skills, and clinical competencies in primary care. In this investigation, we evaluated the effectiveness of a digital education program, mediated by a virtual learning environment, in enhancing nurses' clinical knowledge about diabetic foot ulcers. This quasi-experimental intervention study was conducted with 114 nurses, selected for convenience, from the five health districts that make up primary care in the municipality of Teresina, Brazil. Two stages, separated by the educational intervention, allowed us to measure their knowledge levels before and after the implementation of the digital technology. A characterization form and the Nurse Knowledge Assessment Questionnaire on Diabetic Foot were used to evaluate the outcomes. The McNemar test compared the pre- and post-intervention knowledge levels, while accuracy rate-based parameters allowed for the classification of results into performance categories. The intervention effect size was estimated using Cohen's d test. Results showed substantial improvements in knowledge, particularly in domains related to definition (
