Study on Knowledge of Infection Control Practice of Healthcare Workers.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), also known as nosocomial infections, are a significant risk in hospitals, leading to increased morbidity and mortality among patients due to poor hygiene practices. Materials and Methods: This descriptive study involved 350 participants from Wuhan's private hospitals. Respondents answered a questionnaire distributed in person or via email, and data were analyzed using SPSS version 25.0. Results: Analysis revealed a knowledge gap among healthcare workers in infection control, affecting their ability to maintain hospital cleanliness. Education levels were assessed, showing that 60% of participants held diplomas or higher qualifications. Conclusion: The study highlights the urgent need for enhanced training and information dissemination on infection control practices among healthcare staff. Identifying this knowledge and practice gap is crucial for improving hospital hygiene and reducing HAI incidence.
