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

Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) occurs due to damage of peripheral nerves, with healthcare professionals playing significant roles in PNI rehabilitation. This study aimed to explore the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) towards PNI rehabilitation among healthcare professionals. This cross-sectional study was conducted on June 2023 in China and healthcare professionals were enrolled. A total of 611 valid questionnaires were collected, with 62.52% female respondents. Mean scores for KAP were 14.26 ± 2.044 (possible range: 0-19), 29.77 ± 3.622 (possible range: 7-35), and 41.55 ± 9.523 (possible range: 11-55), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression revealed positive associations of professional titles (OR = 1.743, 95% CI: 1.083-2.804), occupation (OR = 1.833, 95% CI: 1.151-2.919), and involvement in treatment or care of PNI patients (OR = 1.462, 95% CI: 1.024-2.088) with knowledge. Knowledge (OR = 1.155, 95% CI: 1.042-1.280), gender (OR = 2.140, 95% CI: 1.255-3.646), education (OR = 2.258, 95% CI: 1.131-4.507), and involvement in treatment or care of PNI patients (OR = 2.463, 95% CI: 1.460-4.155) were positively associated with attitude. Attitude (OR = 1.214, 95% CI: 1.148-1.283), bachelor's degree education (OR = 0.548, 95% CI: 0.326-0.919), master's degree or higher (OR = 0.545, 95% CI: 0.308-0.964), having rehabilitation training for PNI (OR = 2.485, 95% CI: 1.633-3.781), and involvement in treatment or care of PNI patients (OR = 2.093, 95% CI: 1.395-3.138) were independently associated with practice. Healthcare professionals exhibited moderate knowledge, positive attitudes, and moderate practices towards the PNI rehabilitation. Those involved in the treatment or care of PNI have significantly higher KAP. Targeted interventions were needed to enhance understanding and promote proactive engagement in clinical practice.
