[Learning digital health literacy in school: results of a representative survey of pupils in Germany].

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
backgroundDigital information sources provide adolescents with quick access to health-related information. Schools are ideal for promoting digital health literacy and enabling students to handle such information safely. The aim of this paper is to present initial results from a representative study on learning digital health literacy in schools, with a focus on sociodemographic and socioeconomic differences.
methodsThe cross-sectional study was conducted in Germany with 1448 students (aged 9 to 18 years) as part of the DURCHBLICKT! PROJECT: Bivariate and multivariate analyses were used to examine differences and relationships in the learning of digital health literacy in school and gender, age, migration background, and subjective social status.
resultsApproximately 50% of students reported that they had not (or only to a limited extent) learned digital health literacy in school. The chi-square test reveals significant differences in terms of gender, age, migration background, and social status. Regression analyses indicate that age and subjective social status are significant factors for acquiring digital health literacy. DISCUSSION: The high number of students who do not learn digital health literacy in school is concerning, especially given their often low levels of digital health literacy. The results highlight the need for targeted educational strategies-especially those tailored to gender and socioeconomic status-to promote digital health literacy and reduce social inequalities.
