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 aims to analyze the behavior changes of health workers in township hospitals by exploring their individual service, health information utilization, and health information exchange before and after intervention.A cross-sectional survey was conducted from September, 2016 to December, 2016 in Qianjiang city, Hubei Province, China. A total of 432 township hospital health workers were investigated from 12 township hospitals. t test and chi-square test were adopted in the difference analysis to compare the behavior changes and factors of the control and intervention groups before and after intervention. t test and U test were used to analyze the behaviors and the key impact factors of health workers in township hospitals. The hypothesis test of the behavior changes in the township hospitals were analyzed using the partial least squares (PLS) method.No significant difference was observed between the control and intervention groups of health workers in township hospitals. Significant differences were observed in the behavior attitude (BA), perceived behavior control (PBC), behavior intention (BI), and behaviors of information utilization and exchange in the intervention group. A significant difference was observed in the indicators of subjective norm (SN), BI, and behaviors with respect to information exchange. A large increment was observed in the intervention group. Based on results of PLS, the individual service, health information utilization, and health information exchange established relationships with BA, SN, PBC, and BI to a certain degree.A cause and effect relationship can be observed among BA, SN, PBC, BI, and behaviors of health workers in the township hospitals. BI can promote behavior changes among township hospital health workers. Moreover, different behaviors are demonstrated by different people because of BA, SN, PBC, and BI. The results of this study can contribute to improving the feasibility, pertinence, and effects of health service, and can serve as the guide in understanding health workers' behaviors.
