Bridging the Knowledge-Behaviour Gap in Noise-Induced Hearing Loss: Why Awareness Campaigns Are Not Enough.
Article in Noise & health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Despite increasing awareness of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL), unsafe listening behaviours remain prevalent, particularly amongst young adults using personal listening devices. Research indicates that awareness campaigns alone are insufficient in changing behaviour due to psychological biases, social norms and environmental constraints. Whilst these campaigns may increase knowledge, they often fail to address the behavioural and structural barriers that drive unsafe listening habits. In this paper, a multidimensional approach to NIHL prevention is presented, integrating behavioural science, technology and policy interventions. By examining the cognitive, social and environmental factors influencing listening behaviours, this paper highlights the need for interventions beyond traditional awareness efforts, emphasising behaviourally driven strategies that foster sustainable change.
