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
Following the COVID-19 pandemic, disease prevention and preventive behaviors have become crucial for public health. In young adults, the internet is a popular source of health information. However, research that explores the factors associated with disease preventive behaviors based on the eHealth literacy (eHL) and the Health Belief Model (HBM) in young adults is lacking. A cross-sectional study design was used. Snowball sampling was used to recruit the participants through social network services. Proportionate stratified sampling was applied according to age, sex, and education level to mitigate sampling bias. The URL link for the online survey was provided via their mobile phones. A total of 324 participants, aged 20 to 39, completed the structured questionnaires (response rate = 98.2%). Frequency and descriptive statistical analyses, independent
