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.

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.

Abstract

Background: Postpartum hemorrhage is a time-sensitive obstetric emergency that requires rapid assessment and coordinated management. This study evaluated the effects of simulation-based education on midwifery students' postpartum hemorrhage management knowledge, skill performance, and self-efficacy Methods: An assessor-blinded randomized controlled trial was conducted with 45 third-year midwifery students. Participants were randomly allocated to an intervention group that received traditional theoretical education followed by simulation-based education ( Results: Knowledge scores increased in both groups. A significant between-group difference was observed immediately after the intervention ( Conclusion: Simulation-based education was associated with a short-term between-group advantage in PPH-related knowledge and with a large, stable post-intervention advantage in skill performance across four weeks. No clear additional effect on self-efficacy was demonstrated. Because skill performance was not measured at baseline, the skill findings should be interpreted with appropriate caution. Clinical trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07618442, https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT07618442.
