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
objectivePrescription opioid education can be a preventative measure for opioid misuse. However, most research focuses on adult perspectives rather than adolescents. This study aimed to understand adolescents' attitudes, perceptions, knowledge about prescription opioids, and preferences and prior educational exposure to opioid safety.
methodsData were collected from November to December 2020. Quota sampling through Qualtrics was used to recruit a national sample of 13- to 18-year-old adolescents who lived in the United States and could understand English.
resultsA total of 774 responses were analyzed. The most frequently reported source of opioid information was speaking with parents (72%). More than half (54.7%) of participants preferred technology-based education. Participants with a personal history of opioid prescription scored no differently on safe handling and storage of opioids. There was a strong relationship between participants who reported prior knowledge of what opioids are and stopping their friend from using an opioid medication for non-medical purposes (χ
conclusionsParticipants were less knowledgeable about safe storage and disposal of opioids, preferred technology-based education, and were extremely likely to talk to their parents about opioid information. Findings reaffirm the significance of opioid safety education and communication between adolescents and parents. Adolescent demographic characteristics, preferences, and prior knowledge should be considered when providing opioid safety education.
