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: Health literacy is crucial in managing health outcomes, including overweight, which is a significant issue among late adolescents. Despite the importance of health literacy in weight management, research focusing on this population remains limited. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the factors influencing health literacy in overweight management among late adolescents in Thailand. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with late adolescents from five higher education institutions in Ubon Ratchathani Province, Thailand. A total of 403 participants were selected through multistage random sampling. Self-report questionnaires, validated for reliability and accuracy, were used to collect data from March to May 2023. Multiple regression analysis was employed, with a significance level set at 0.05. Results: The sample consisted predominantly of females (91.10%) with an average age of 20-21 years (54.30%). The prevalence of overweight/obesity among participants was 25.06%. Four factors were significantly associated with health literacy in overweight management: access to health and weight control resources ( Conclusion: The study identified key factors that enhance health literacy in overweight management among late adolescents in Thailand. It is recommended that nurses and other healthcare professionals develop targeted interventions focusing on these factors to effectively manage overweight in this population.
