Osteoporosis Knowledge, Self-Efficacy, and Beliefs among College Students in the USA and China.
Article in Journal of osteoporosis, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers.
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
This study investigated differences in osteoporosis knowledge, self-efficacy, and health beliefs among Chinese and American college students. Information obtained will be used in developing osteoporosis prevention programs for younger adults. Methods. Chinese (n = 409) and US (n = 408) college students completed the Osteoporosis Health Belief, Self-Efficacy, and Knowledge Tests. Results. Differences were seen in osteoporosis knowledge (M(us) = 14.52, M(Chinese) = 11.82), exercise knowledge (M(us) = 8.16, M(Chinese) = 9.04), calcium knowledge (M(us) = 8.47, M(Chinese) = 9.73), perceptions of exercise benefits (M(us) = 24.07, M(Chinese) = 21.09), calcium benefits (M(us) = 23.17, M(Chinese) = 18.36), exercise barriers (M(us) = 11.75, M(Chinese) = 14.96), calcium barriers (M(us) = 13.04, M(Chinese) = 15), and exercise self-efficacy (M(us) = 73.71, M(Chinese) = 63.81). Conclusion. US college students know more about osteoporosis and its risk factors; however, there are similarities in perception of risk between US and Chinese students. Chinese students perceive greater barriers to reducing their risk through exercise and dietary calcium intake.
