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
Objectives: The forcibly displaced Myanmar nationals (FDMN) camp in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh, is highly vulnerable to infectious disease outbreaks due to overcrowding and limited healthcare infrastructure. This study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) related to infection prevention and control (IPC) among healthcare workers (HCWs) in the FDMN camp to identify gaps and inform targeted interventions. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between September 2023 and July 2024 among 401 HCWs employed in Primary Health Care Centers, Health Posts, Community Clinics, and Upazila Health Complexes within the FDMN camp. Respondents were randomly selected from the healthcare workforce list of the local civil surgeon's office. Data were collected using a semi-structured, pretested questionnaire. The questionnaire covered sociodemographics and a KAP survey was developed based on the World Health Organization IPC protocol. Descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, and association analyses were performed using SPSS version 22, with significance set at Results: Among 401 healthcare workers, 60.6% were female and 39.4% were male. Overall, 71.8% had good IPC knowledge, 64.4% showed positive attitudes, and 85.5% demonstrated good practices. Knowledge was significantly associated with age, experience, job station, and training (all Conclusions: Healthcare workers in the FDMN camp showed good IPC knowledge and practices, though attitudes varied. Training significantly improved all KAP domains. Strengthening NGO-led training, supervision at PHCCs, and routine KAP monitoring is vital for sustainable infection control in refugee settings.
