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/

objectivesThis study investigated food safety knowledge, attitudes, and practices among consumers of different age groups in Seoul. These findings provide foundational data for the development of age specific food safety education programs. SUBJECTS/

methodsA total of 447 participants aged 20-60 yrs completed an online survey assessing demographics and food safety knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) across categories such as food poisoning, handwashing, food purchase, storage, handling, and consumption. Data were analyzed using SPSS 24.0, with one-way analysis of variance and Duncan's multiple comparisons for post-hoc analysis.

resultsIn terms of knowledge, handwashing scored the highest (0.93), whereas egg storage scored the lowest (0.50). Adults in their 40-60s demonstrated greater knowledge of food freezing (

conclusionThis study highlights age-related differences in food safety KAP, emphasizing the need for targeted education. Developing age-specific programs can improve food safety behaviors and adherence to hygiene practices.
