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: Transplantation of cells, tissues, and organs enables many patients to regain impaired organ function, promoting healing or prolonging life and improving overall quality of life. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge and attitudes of students in Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina regarding organ donation and transplantation of organs. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out with 255 students from four different faculties in Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, with the majority enrolled in either the Faculty of Medicine or the Faculty of Health Sciences. The students collected data using a self-administrative questionnaire, providing sociodemographic characteristics, knowledge and attitudes about organ donation and transplantation. Statistical analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel version 3645 and R studio v2024.04.2, based on R 4.4.1. Results: Out of all students, 49 of them (19.3%) demonstrated poor knowledge, while 131 students (51.6%) exhibited average knowledge. Analyzing the data by Faculty type revealed significantly higher levels of knowledge among students in Medical and Health faculties compared to those in the Educational Science Faculty (χ Conclusion: Students from Faculty of Medicine and Faculty of Health Sciences generally possess higher basic knowledge about organ donation, yet despite this knowledge, their attitudes toward organ donation often remain negative. It is essential to implement effective strategies aimed at raising awareness and fostering a positive attitude toward organ donation.
