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

backgroundCervical cancer (CC) is a major public health issue. This study assessed the alteration in students' knowledge and willingness to undergo CC screening, and take human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine after an educational intervention. MATERIALS AND

methodsA quasi-experimental pre/post study design was adopted. A sample of 379 medical students at Suez University was selected using simple random sampling method. A self-administrated valid reliable questionnaire was utilized to collect the socio demographic data, knowledge about CC, and respondents' willingness and obstacles to CC screening and HPV vaccine. The health education program was delivered to students via the Microsoft team platform. Repeated measures ANOVA was utilized to compare the mean score of knowledge before the educational intervention, immediately, and 1 month later. Cochran's test was used to compare the level of knowledge before intervention, immediately after, and 1 month after the educational intervention.

resultsAbout 52% of participants reported poor knowledge (<60%) before the educational intervention but significantly improving after the education program (20.3%). The mean knowledge score before the educational intervention, immediate post and 1 month later was 16.5 ± 7.3, 21.8 ± 6.3, and 21.9 ± 6.6, respectively, and this difference was statistically significant (

conclusionThe educational intervention enhanced students' knowledge about CC.
