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

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic boosted the increase in online sales, however there is a lack of research on the shoe purchasing pattern among the Brazilian population. Objective: To investigate the shoe purchasing pattern. Method: This cross-sectional study comprises individuals from a Foot and Ankle Outpatient Clinic. A total of 500 individuals were invited to respond to a digital form using the Google Forms tool. Stata® software version 13.0 was used for statistical analyses. Results: 433 individuals were included, 86.37% of whom were women. Purchasing shoes online was reported by 44.34% (n=192/433) of individuals, and 13.39% (n=58/433) said that the choice of digital platforms was due to the practicality of purchasing online. There were differences in the shoe purchasing pattern according to female and male gender (p<0.001). Conclusion: Although most of the individuals surveyed are not used to buying shoes online, most purchases were made by women, mainly aiming for comfort and beauty. This study highlights the need to develop tools that help people purchase shoes online.
