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: The aim of this study was to examine the impact of anti-doping education among professional athletes on anti-doping knowledge. Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted on differences in knowledge toward doping among 404 professional athletes in relation to their education about doping. Results: Participants who underwent education answered correctly significantly more often on most of the questions compared to participants without education [difference of about 20-30% in the rate of correct answers is in favor of participants with education on every question; 8.49 (SD 2.75) vs. 11.04 (SD 1.89); Conclusion: Our research shows that prior anti-doping education is effective and has the essential contribution on athletes' knowledge about doping.
