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
backgroundGlucocorticoids are widely used in inhalation aerosol therapy for wheezing diseases. This study aims to explore guardians' knowledge and attitude towards inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) aerosol therapy and the medication compliance of children with wheezing diseases in China.
methodsThis cross-sectional study enrolled guardians of children with wheezing diseases at the First Hospital Affiliated to Shaoyang College between October 2022 and February 2023. A self-administered questionnaire was developed to collect demographic information of the participants and evaluate their knowledge and attitude towards ICS aerosol therapy. The 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale was used to assess the medication compliance of children.
resultsA total of 506 valid questionnaires were collected. 260 (51.38%) participants were guardians of a ≤ 3-year-old child and 327 (64.62%) were children's mothers. The knowledge, attitude, and medication compliance scores of all participants were 12.61 ± 5.78, 20.95 ± 2.37, and 4.69 ± 2.18, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression showed that knowledge scores [OR = 1.053, 95% CI (confidence interval): 1.017-1.090, P = 0.003], attitude scores (OR = 1.121, 95% CI: 1.030-1.219, P = 0.008), guardians of children aged 4-6 years (OR = 0.385, 95% CI: 0.242-0.612, P < 0.001), and grandparents of children (OR = 2.633, 95% CI: 1.104-6.275, P = 0.029) were independently associated with children's medication compliance.
conclusionsIn conclusion, guardians of children with wheezing diseases in China had insufficient knowledge, unsatisfactory attitude, and poor medication compliance towards ICS aerosol therapy.
