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.
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: Respiratory infections have increased globally over time, with older adults being the most susceptible demographic. Programs based on cultures and experiences strongly correspond with useful, real-world applications. Objective: This study evaluated a participatory and culturally based learning program's effect on awareness, knowledge, and preventive behaviors regarding coronavirus and health care among Muslim older adults with hypertension and diabetes in Thailand. Methods: The quasi-experimental study used a 2-group pretest-posttest design with participants aged 60-80 years with hypertension and diabetes. The sample included 35 in the experimental group and 32 in the control group. An interactive 6-week learning program focusing on coronavirus prevention and health care was developed by incorporating Muslim cultural perspectives and Kolb experiential learning model, alongside standard care. The control group received only standard care. Data were collected via a questionnaire covering general information, awareness, knowledge, and preventive behaviors related to coronavirus prevention and health care. The content validity indices of sections II, III, and IV were 0.98, 0.99, and 0.96, respectively. The Cronbach α coefficients of awareness and behaviors were 0.89 and 0.86, respectively, while the KR-20 for knowledge was 0.86. Data analysis was conducted using the t test, Mann-Whitney U test, and Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results: The results indicated that, after participating in the program, the awareness, knowledge, and preventive behaviors related to coronavirus and health care among older adults in the experimental group significantly improved compared to their preprogram levels and to those in the control group, with a P value <.01. Conclusions: The program effectively improved coronavirus prevention and health care among Muslim older adults. It could be broadly applied in similar contexts and to other severe respiratory diseases.
