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

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the general population's knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding hair dye (HD) usage and its adverse effects in the Northern Emirates of the United Arab Emirates. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted over 3 months in the general population of Ras Al Khaimah. Information was collected by administering a pre-validated self-administered questionnaire related to HDs. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression to correlate HD use with various sociodemographic variables. Results with a Results: In total, 333 of the 405 distributed questionnaires completed the study, with a response rate of 82.20%. Most (52.85%) participants used natural HDs, and most (30.59%) admitted that their motivation to use HD was to remove gray hair. Of the total sample, nearly 75% agreed that they had never performed an allergic test before using the HD, and almost 70% believed that providing advice regarding the HD would be beneficial. Sex ( Conclusion: In the present study, HD was common among students, employees, and middle-aged students. Approaches such as educational awareness programs with special attention to the safe and effective use of HDs may help individuals select appropriate HDs and avoid preventable adverse effects.
