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

purposeScabies is a common, neglected, and a major health concern skin disease in the world. Improper care may produce a series of complications and even lead to the spread of diseases. Nursing students, as future health-care workers, are vital to the prevention and care of diseases. However, to date, few studies have focused on the basis of their disease cognition for scabies. This study aims to evaluate the level of undergraduate nursing students' awareness of scabies disease.

methodsA questionnaire survey was conducted among all undergraduate nursing students in Xi'an FanYi University, Xian, Shaanxi Province, China.

resultsAll the 132 undergraduate nursing students completed the questionnaire. The true ignorance rate of scabies in this survey was 82.6%. However, among the 56 students (42.4% of total) who thought they knew about the disease. Only 23 students (17.4% of the samples) had 75% or more satisfactory knowledge. Fewer students claimed that they had read about the itchy-mite-disease in books (N = 20, 15.2%). Compared with college textbooks (

conclusionThis study shows that undergraduate nursing students have a poor level of knowledge about scabies. There is an urgent need to improve nursing students' awareness of scabies and increase their knowledge base, so as to strengthen the standardized nursing of scabies and reduce the prevalence of scabies.
