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

Objectives: This study presents baseline characteristics of a cluster randomized controlled trial (cRCT) on hand hygiene in primary healthcare in Burkina Faso and Mali, addressing data gaps on hand hygiene practices in these settings. Methods: We implemented a two-arm cRCT in 48 primary healthcare facilities. Baseline data were collected (January-June 2023), followed by covariate-constrained randomization. We conducted covert hand hygiene observations, hand-rinse sampling for Results: Baseline data included 309 healthcare workers. Trial arms were balanced in hand hygiene adherence, behavioral factors, and Conclusion: Poor hand hygiene and
