Survey on knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) of malaria prevention and control among Chinese expatriates in South Sudan.

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
backgroundMalaria is a major health risk faced by Chinese expatriates working in South Sudan. The purpose of this study is to investigate the knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) of Chinese expatriates in South Sudan towards malaria prevention and control, analyze the influencing factors, and provide a basis for reducing the morbidity and mortality of malaria.
methodsBy distributing questionnaires, data on socio-demographic characteristics of Chinese expatriates in South Sudan, and information on their knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors towards malaria prevention and control were collected from April 5th to 12th, 2023.
resultsThe recognition degree of malaria prevention and control was better, and the accuracy of each choice in knowledge, attitude and pracice was 19.4-99.75%, 85.57-99.25% and 82.59-99.00%, respectively. Of the 402 respondents, none had a history of malaria before coming to South Sudan, the malaria infection rate was 41.29% (166/402). The results of multiple linear regression analysis suggest "Knowledge Scores" will have a significant positive impact on "Practices Scores" (B = 0.206, 95% CI: 0.045 ~ 0.367, P = 0.013). However, the remaining five independent variables do not have an impact on "Practices Scores".
conclusionsThe KAP of Chinese expatriates in South Sudan towards malaria prevention and control is good, but needs to be further strengthened. Improving knowledge about malaria prevention and control can reduce the incidence of malaria.
