Knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding stone formation and recurrence among urolithiasis patients: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
This study investigated the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) concerning stone formation and recurrence among patients with urolithiasis treated at Ningbo Medical Centre Lihuili Hospital between August 19, 2023, and April 19, 2024. A total of 394 patients were included, among which 70.30% were males. The median scores for knowledge, attitude, and practice were 7 (6-8.25), 29 (26.75-31), and 21.5 (18-25), respectively, indicating good knowledge and attitude but suboptimal practice. Positive correlations were found between knowledge and attitude (r = 0.274, P < 0.001) and between attitude and practice (r = 0.126, P < 0.05). Logistic regression revealed that knowledge, education, and whether the patient experienced a new or recurrent stone were independent predictors of attitude. Attitude, education, body mass index (BMI), and daily water intake were independent predictors of practice. Structural equation modeling (SEM) showed that knowledge, family history, and education directly influenced attitude, while education also significantly impacted practice. Our findings highlight the need for targeted diet, hydration, and lifestyle education to enhance preventive practices among patients with urolithiasis.
