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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesThe viewpoints of Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences medical experts'' were compared with those of auxiliary health workers regarding health culture related to human papillomavirus vaccination in 2020.

methodsIn this cross-sectional study, 220 medical experts' (gynecologists, cultural, psychological, infectious, dermatological, and educational) and auxiliary health workers were randomly selected and investigated. The required data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire modeled on international questionnaires. These questionnaire contained demographic information on the subjects' age and sex as well as health culture was also assessed by measuring the knowledge, attitude, and practice of the subjects.

resultsThe mean age of the included medical experts' and auxiliary health workers was 38.0 3±8.3 and 35.2±7.5 years old, respectively. There was a significant difference in the knowledge of auxiliary health workers as 55.3 ± 3.8 in comparison with the medical experts' as 51.6 3± 6.3 (p <0.002). There was a significant difference on whether changing cultural attitudes about the need for vaccination could be effective on reducing sexually transmitted diseases between the auxiliary health workers  and medical experts'  (p <0.001). There was a significant difference in the knowledge of auxiliary health workers 55.3 ± 3.8 in comparison with the psychology and cultural experts' as 48.5± 6.3, 48.3± 6.8 (p<0.001) respectively.

conclusionKnowledge among the auxiliary health workers was significantly different from that of psychology and cultural experts' in relation to health culture for human papillomavirus vaccination. It was indicated that these experts need to upgrade their health culture knowledge to increase the rate of community participation in human papillomavirus vaccination.
