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: Dengue which is an arboviral disease transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquito, drastically affected communities worldwide. It has been showing consistently a rising trend in developing country like India. Study Objectives: To assess the knowledge, attitude and practices (KAPs) related to the prevention and control of dengue fever (DF) among frontline staff members at a medical teaching institution in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand. Materials and Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted at a medical teaching institution in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand. Out of 830 frontline workers only 208 workers were recruited in a study by the simple random selection method. A semi-structured interview questionnaire was applied to assess the KAPs of participants. Attitude was assessed by four-point Likert scaling. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 23 for Windows. Results: A total of 208 participants were interviewed. Majority were male (70.2%) with the age group of 31 to 45 years (71.2%). Majority (50.5%) of participants were educated up to higher secondary and working as a security guard (78.8%). Most (72.6%) of the respondents said the rainy season was the most common outbreak season for dengue. Most (63.6%) of the participants were aware that dengue is transmitted by mosquitoes. The majority (49%) of participants strongly agreed that dengue is a fatal disease. Conclusion: There is an urgent need to prevent and control the epidemics of dengue by adoption of seven plus one model which contributes in reducing the overall burden in healthcare delivery system.
