Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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.

A considerable number of different cancer types may be preventable, using primary intervention techniques, such as health education, cancer awareness, behaviors and lifestyle modifications. The present study conducted a comparative assessment of cancer awareness among undergraduate students of the United States and India. MATERIALS AND
methodsStudents from an Institution in India (KC) (55 females, 33 males), and an Institution in the United States of America (SHU) (226 female, 58 male) during 2019-2020 participated in this study. Participants (
resultsOur research shows a few important statistically significant differences, including knowledge of cancer and breast lumps is dependent on location, ranking of global cancer deaths is dependent on location, and that cancer knowledge is dependent on the information source. All for Χ
conclusionsFurther encouragement of education for young people in various aspects of cancer and cancer prevention, as well as information facility and sources of reliable data, could be helpful for improving the overall health and primary prevention. A thorough assessment is needed to understand the responsible factors for the observed cancer knowledge variations among students of two different places.
