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

The primary aim of this study was to investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practice(KAP) concerning Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and the factors influencing them among northeast China individuals. A questionnaire regarding H. pylori, grounded in the KAP theoretical framework, was tailored for northeast China individuals. The questionnaire was conducted online and analyzed statistically. Additionally, structural equation modeling was applied to verify the interconnections among social media usage, knowledge, attitude, and practice. A total of 712 valid questionnaires were analyzed. The mean scores were 2.69 ± 1.03 for knowledge, 4.09 ± 0.81 for attitude, and 3.40 ± 0.73 for practice. Various factors including sex, occupation, and social media usage influenced knowledge, attitude, and practice scores, with social media usage exerting a notable impact on all facets. The structural equation modeling analysis demonstrated that social media usage promoted higher levels of knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding H. pylori. Individuals possessing a higher level of knowledge and attitude concerning H. pylori demonstrated superior preventive practice. Northeast China residents have limited H. pylori knowledge but show a positive attitude and good preventive practice. The utilization of social media has significantly improved the population's knowledge, attitude, and practice concerning H. pylori.
