Knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding tuberculosis in a labor-intensive industrial district.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: In China, tuberculosis (TB) is a major contributor to deaths caused by infectious diseases, with a significant number of cases remaining undetected. Lack of knowledge could heighten the chances of infecting TB. Due to the lack of information on the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) related to TB among labor-intensive businesses, the study aimed to evaluate the TB KAP within this demographic. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional survey was conducted among 1,007 participants from March 1 to 28, 2023. A survey was created for assessing knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to tuberculosis, and was sent to employees within the company. We utilize t-tests, ANOVA, and multiple linear regression to investigate the relationship between TB knowledge, attitudes, and practices and various influencing factors. Results: The mean good scores rate for TB KAP were 43.5, 23.5, and 75.3%, respectively. Native, female, and workers living in their own houses had a higher score in TB knowledge. Native, non-operators, and workers with a history of TB contact had higher scores in TB practice. Regarding the multivariable linear regression analysis, sex, seniority, birthplace, marital status, and sources of information were associated with greater knowledge; monthly income categories were associated with greater attitude; and position, birthplace, and contact history were associated with greater practice. Conclusion: The survey results lead to the assumption that the level of KAP toward TB is not high among manufacturing workers in Songjiang district. Therefore, it is crucial to enhance tuberculosis knowledge, attitudes, and practices within this demographic.
