Patients' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding lifestyle related dry eye.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Rising incidences of dry eye, often attributed to modern lifestyle and environmental factors, highlight the need for knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) studies to inform tailored interventions. This study evaluated patients' KAP concerning lifestyle-related dry eye at the Ophthalmology Hospital of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences from July 1 to July 26, 2024. A self-designed questionnaire was used to gather demographic data and assess KAP scores, yielding 556 valid responses (98.93%). Among participants, 342 (61.51%) were female, with a mean age of 39.26 ± 13.56 years. Mean KAP scores were 7.44 ± 4.65 (knowledge), 35.20 ± 4.10 (attitude), and 35.77 ± 6.15 (practice). Mediation analysis indicated direct influences of age and familial dry eye history on knowledge, with knowledge impacting attitude, and various factors influencing practice. While patients exhibited limited knowledge, they generally held positive attitudes and engaged in proactive practices. Enhancing patient education on lifestyle factors related to dry eye is essential to boost knowledge and foster effective prevention and management strategies.
