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
Introduction: Avoiding unnecessary travel and reducing the number of essential travels are among the effective strategies for preventing the spread of COVID-19 during the pandemic. Given that it is impossible to avoid essential travel, health protocols should be observed to prevent disease transmission. The extent to which health protocols are observed during the trip should be accurately assessed by a valid questionnaire. Therefore, this study aims to develop and validate a questionnaire to assess compliance with COVID-19 prevention protocols during travel. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 285 individuals were selected from six provinces using the cluster sampling method in May and June 2021. The Content Validity Ratio (CVR) and Content Validity Index (CVI) were calculated using the comments of 12 external experts. The exploratory factor analysis (EFA), with principal component factor in the extraction method and Varimax rotation, were applied to determine construct validity. Cronbach's alpha was employed to assess internal consistency and the Spearman-Brown correlation coefficient was computed for test-retest reliability. Results: In the content validity phase, the I-CVIs for all items were acceptable, but due to a low CVR value (below 0.56), one question was eliminated. As a result of EFA for construct validity, two factors were extracted that justified 61.8% of the variance. Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the questionnaire, with 10 items, was 0.83. The Spearman-Brown correlation coefficient was 0.911 which confirmed the stability of the questionnaire at an excellent level. Conclusions: This questionnaire is a valid tool with good validity and reliability for assessing compliance with health protocols in travel during the COVID-19 pandemic.
