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: Gender defined as the socially constructed roles, behaviors, activities, and characteristics that society deems appropriate for men, women, and other gender identities. Inequitable gender norms promote male dominance and aggressiveness while portraying women as being subservient. Ensuring equitable gender norms is a prerequisite for achieving gender equality in a society. The rise in maternal mortality and morbidity, adolescent pregnancies, unwanted pregnancies, unsafe abortions, HIV/AIDS, gender-based violence, and obstacles to reproductive health care are all linked to inequitable gender norms. On the other hand, not much is known regarding inequitable gender norms and their correlation in our setting. Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate university students' attitudes regarding inequitable gender norms and responsible factors. Design: Between October 25 and November 10, 2022, students from Jinka and Arba Minch University participated in an institution-based cross-sectional study. Methods: A total of 635 students were selected using a multi-stage sampling technique. The Gender Equitable Men Scale was employed to evaluate inequitable gender norms. Data were verified and entered into Epi-Data Version 3.1, then analyzed using SPSS Version 25.0. Binary logistic regression was initially used to identify potential factors associated with inequitable gender norms, variables having a Results: Of the study participants, 44.1% (95% CI: 40.10, 48.10%) had an inequitable gender norm, while the mean score for a inequitable gender norm was 61.4 (SD 8.4). Inequitable gender norm was associated with sex being male (AOR = 1.75, 95%CI: 1.19, 2.56), romantic relationship breakup (AOR = 2.10, 95% CI: 1.14, 3.99), and having a negative attitude toward gender equality (AOR = 3,14, 95% CI: 2.15, 4.58). Conclusion: A notable number of participants expressed support for inequitable gender norms. This underscores the importance of comprehensive efforts by relevant stakeholders to address identified factors and promote equitable gender norms among university students.
