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: Pharmacovigilance is essential for ensuring patient safety, and hospital pharmacists play a key role in this system. However, their knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) remain understudied in China. Objectives: To evaluate the KAP of hospital pharmacists toward pharmacovigilance in China. Design: Nationwide, cross-sectional study. Methods: This study evaluated the KAP of 9724 hospital pharmacists from 2145 hospitals across all 31 provinces of mainland China using a structured questionnaire and a multi-stage sampling approach. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the KAP of the participants, and multivariable logistic regression was applied to explore the influencing factors of high KAP performance. Results: The proportions of respondents achieving high performance (score ⩾4 out of a maximum of 5) in knowledge, attitudes, and practices were 22.2%, 44.2%, and 68.0%, respectively, with significant correlations between these dimensions ( Conclusion: Our study reveals a significant scope for enhancement in the KAP of hospital pharmacists pertaining to pharmacovigilance in China. Specifically, there is a critical need to improve the understanding of pharmacovigilance's scope and responsibilities, and fostering stronger collaborative efforts between medical institutions and MAH is imperative, particularly within targeted pharmacist groups.
