Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of patients with lower limb fractures post-surgery regarding deep vein thrombosis.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a significant postoperative complication in patients with lower limb fractures, potentially leading to life-threatening outcomes such as pulmonary embolism. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of this high-risk population regarding DVT prevention. A cross-sectional study was conducted at Nanchang Hongdu Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between March 2023 and May 2024. A structured questionnaire collected demographic and KAP data, analyzed using descriptive statistics and structural equation modeling (SEM). Among 442 valid respondents, SEM revealed direct effects of knowledge on attitudes (β = 0.593, P < 0.001) and attitudes on practices (β = 0.746, P < 0.001). Despite proactive practices, patients demonstrated inadequate knowledge and negative attitudes towards DVT. These findings underscore the need for targeted educational interventions to enhance patient understanding and attitudes, ultimately improving preventive behaviors and reducing DVT-related complications.
