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
Introduction: Saudi Arabia has witnessed the first confirmed case of Mpox on July 14th, 2022. Currently, there is no approved medication for the treatment of this infection. Therefore, prevention of this infection is crucial. This study aimed to assess knowledge and attitude toward the monkeypox viral infection among pharmacy students of Jazan University in Saudi Arabia. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, self-administered web-based study between the periods from April 2024 to June 2024. Descriptive statistics for all variables used chi-square statistics, and multivariate analysis to establish the association between participant's demographic characteristics and knowledge of monkeypox disease. Results: The overall level of knowledge and attitude found 32 and 44.5%, respectively among pharmacy students. The source of information was commonly social media (55.5%), and only 38% reported receiving information during medical education. The factors associated with knowledge level included gender ( Conclusion: This study found the participants had a low level of knowledge and attitude toward Mpox infection. There is a need for the implementation of educational programs to know about this kind of outbreak and increase the knowledge and attitude of the students.
