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

Background: Patients with cancer are more likely to develop infections from several factors, and an infectious complication is the leading cause of death in this population. Therefore, nurses should provide educational media to these patients for infection prevention. Objective: This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of using an online instructional video to prevent infections among patients with cancer in Thailand. Methods: A quasi-experimental design was conducted from May 2020 to March 2021 at a cancer hospital in northeast Thailand. The participants consisted of 54 patients with cancer (27 each in the experimental and control group). The experimental group participants received four weeks of online video instruction at home, while the control group received the usual education from nurses. The data collection instruments included a demographic data questionnaire, a knowledge test, an infection prevention practice questionnaire, and a video media satisfaction questionnaire. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics, chi-square test, Fisher's exact test, paired Results: After receiving the online instruction video, the experimental group had a significantly higher score for infection prevention knowledge, increasing from 17.52 to 20.93 ( Conclusion: The findings support the use of online video as instructional media to enhance knowledge and practices regarding infection prevention among patients with cancer. This online video should be implemented for nurses and healthcare providers to promote knowledge and practices in the prevention of infections among patients with cancer in other hospitals. Trial Registry Number: Thai Clinical Trials Registry (TCTR20241030009).
