Knowledge, attitude and prevention practices toward dengue among the Mauritian population. A cross-sectional study.

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
introductionAfter an absence of more than four decades, dengue reemerged in Mauritius in 2009, with seven outbreaks being recorded to date.
aimThis study assessed the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAPs) of the Mauritian population on dengue.
methodsA questionnaire was designed, and a survey was carried out among 405 participants. The KAP scores of respondents were calculated and categorized as excellent, adequate or poor.
resultThe correlation between knowledge and practice was very weak (τ = 0.088;
conclusionThis study revealed high knowledge of dengue preventive practices but poor prevention practices among respondents. This calls for additional sensitization programs in specific identified groups.
