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

Empathy plays a vital role in patient-centered care, especially in obstetrics and gynaecology, where patients frequently encounter sensitive and emotionally challenging circumstances. This single-center pre-post interventional study involved 75 postgraduate students from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Gandhi Medical College, Bhopal. The intervention was a one-day structured program featuring interactive lectures, educational videos, scenario-based group activities and role-plays. Initial empathy scores were notably low (mean 88.2 ± 7.8). Post-workshop, scores rose markedly to 124.3 ± 8.1 (p < 0.0001). At the eight-week mark, scores decreased to 107.8 ± 9.4 but stayed significantly above baseline (p < 0.0001). The percentage of students achieving high-empathy status (scores ≥116) grew from 21.33% pre-workshop to 33.3% at follow-up.
