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: Premarital screening and counseling (PMCS) is a preventive measure for genetic, infectious, and blood-transmitted diseases. This study aimed to assess secondary school students' knowledge of and attitudes towards PMCS in Taiz City, Yemen. Methods: This study included 306 secondary school students selected through stratified random sampling from six secondary schools representing three directorates in Taiz city, Yemen. Researchers used two validated tools, students' knowledge and attitudes about the PMCS which were adopted from previous studies, to collect the necessary data. The data were analyzed using the SPSS software. Descriptive analysis was conducted for frequencies and percentages while chi square test was used to identify the relationships between the demographics and knowledge level. Results: Most of the students had a weak knowledge of 58.82%, while 40.52% showed fair understanding. The majority of students (79.09%) displayed a positive attitude towards PMCS, among the students with a positive attitude, 36.93% had fair knowledge, whereas 41.5% of the students had weak knowledge. Conclusion: The study concluded that secondary school students in Taiz lack knowledge and have positive attitudes towards various aspects of premarital screening and counseling. Knowledge deficits were linked to male students, younger academic years, non-engagement, and family history of disease.
