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

Objective: To elaborate a guide in Quechua on rational use of medicines and evaluate its relevance in the level of knowledge of Andean health science students. To develop a guide in Quechua on the rational use of medicines and evaluate its relevance in the level of knowledge of Andean health science students through educational intervention. Methods: A quantitative, longitudinal, prospective, applicative, quasi-experimental study with single-group pretest and posttest. The relevance of the guide in Quechua was analyzed with Student's t-test, Wilcoxon's t-test, Kruskall-Wallis and McNemar's test, while the magnitude of the effect by means of biserial correlation (r Results: A total of 115 students participated in the study, mostly 96 (83.5%) females; after the educational intervention the level of knowledge rose from low to high level, the frequency of passing students increased, the intra-group analysis showed increase in the average grade of the students of the 03 schools, from 10.8±2.3 pre-test to 14.5±3.2 post-test, (p-value =0.001), with high effect magnitude (r Conclusion: The guide in Quechua composed of 03 modules: self-medication, rational use of medicines, antibiotics and bacterial resistance was relevant because it increased the level of knowledge of the students of the three schools.
