1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundThe Internet has become a crucial tool for learning, socializing, and entertainment for contemporary minors, and plays an increasingly prominent role in their growth. However, it has been observed that students are often unable to make good judgments about online health information and barely use the Internet to help tackle their health problems. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between electronic health literacy (EHL) and general self-efficacy among Chinese primary and middle school students.

methodsA total of 1200 questionnaires were sent out, and 1085 effective questionnaires were received with effective recovery of 90.42%. First, we conducted a confirmatory factor analysis. Second, structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to explore the mechanisms underlying the relationship between EHL and general self-efficacy.

resultsThe results revealed a significant positive correlation between EHL and self-efficacy. The results of the CFA showed a good fit for the data. The results of SEM showed that the relationship between self-efficacy and health information applications was partially mediated by health information acquisition (β = 0.47, [Bias-Corrected 95%CI: 0.39, 0.59], [Percentile 95%CI: 0.37, 0.58]). Household factors moderated this mediating relationship (β = 0.4, [Bias-Corrected 95%CI: 0.19, 0.61], [Percentile 95%CI: 0.19, 0.61]).

conclusionsInformation acquisition was found to play a mediating role between self-efficacy and information application. Household factors moderated the indirect relationship between self-efficacy and information applications through information acquisition.
