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: The KAP survey evaluates health-related knowledge, attitudes, and practices through a structured questionnaire. By collecting qualitative and quantitative data, it measures the current situation, tests hypotheses, and provides insights for enhancing health behaviors and education. In 2019, the National Health Security Administration (NHSA) initiated DRG payment reforms. This study aims to improve the quality of health insurance and policy implementation by assessing physicians' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding the DRG system. Method: This study was a cross-sectional study designed with a questionnaire through simple random sampling method, and respondents were the doctors in the clinical departments of the sampled hospitals. The questionnaire included basic information, knowledge about DRGs, attitude toward DRGs and practice of implementation. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis, correlation, path analysis and generalized linear model. Result: A total of 210 questionnaires were included. The majority of respondents aware that their healthcare organizations had already begun to implement the policy. With a mean score of 7.67 for knowledge, respondents basically had a good level of knowledge of DRGs. The mean attitude score of the respondents was 30.20, which was lower than the "positive attitude" criterion, and their main concerns were about matters other than treatment. Knowledge scores were significantly correlated with attitude scores ( Conclusion: Oncologists' understanding of DRGs needs to be improved, and their knowledge and attitudes have not yet translated into demonstrable positive practice behaviors. This gap underscores the need for knowledge training and effective incentives.
