Knowledge, attitude, and practice towards enhanced recovery after surgery among patients underwent thoracoscopy surgery.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 4 papers.
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
objectiveThoracoscopy has gained extensive utilization in managing pleural disorders, and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) can improve patients' prognosis and expedite post-surgical recovery. This study aimed to investigate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) towards ERAS among patients underwent thoracoscopy surgery.
methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted between September 2022 and August 2023, among patients underwent thoracoscopy surgery in 6 Secondary or Tertiary hospitals in the author's area. Demographic characteristics and KAP scores were collected by questionnaires, and clinical data were extracted from medical records.
resultsA total of 309 valid questionnaires were collected, with 165 (53.40%) males and 202 (65.37%) aged ≤65 years old. The mean scores for KAP were 28.92±7.21 (possible range: 9-45), 53.60±6.73 (possible range: 13-65), and 43.45±5.50 (possible range: 10-50), respectively. SEM confirmed the positive associations between knowledge and attitude (β = 0.108, P = 0.019), knowledge and practice (β = 0.096, P = 0.004), and attitude and practice (β = 0.438, P<0.001). However, the KAP were found not associated with prognosis.
conclusionPatients underwent thoracoscopy surgery showed moderate knowledge, positive attitude, and appropriate practice towards ERAS. Preoperative education, personalized counseling, peer support groups, peer support groups, and follow-up care were recommended in further clinical practice.
