Clinico-Psychosocial Factors Predicting Hepatocellular Carcinoma Related Knowledge Among Patients with Chronic Liver Disease.
Article in Journal of cancer education : the official journal of the American Association for Cancer Education, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Regular clinical surveillance for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) among high-risk patients could lead to early detection and cure. Patient's knowledge and attitude are important to the uptake rate of this surveillance. This study is aimed at assessing the level of HCC-related knowledge among patients with chronic liver disease (CLD) who are at risk of HCC and determine predictors for poor knowledge. A cross-sectional study was conducted among inpatients with CLD at the Third People's Hospital of Kunming in China. Questionnaires were used to measure patient's sociodemographic characteristics, HCC-related knowledge, and patient-doctor-related psychometric factors. Factor analysis was performed to explore the underlying domains captured by the knowledge questionnaire. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify independent predictors for each domain. Three common factors were derived from the exploratory factor analysis, namely, "Surveillance," "Lifestyle," and "Prognosis." Patients with low educational background and a short period of having CLD were at a significantly low level of HCC-related knowledge of all three domains. On the other hand, surveillance and lifestyle but not prognosis, were associated with patient's communication confidence with doctors. Over two-thirds of high-risk patients had low knowledge of HCC. Medical providers should pay more attention to low educational groups and newly diagnosed CLD patients.
