Awareness of endocrine-disrupting chemicals among medical students and physicians: a cross-sectional study.

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
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have diverse sources of exposure in everyday life. Raising public awareness is crucial, considering the undeniable role of individual choices in EDC exposure. Given the critical role of physicians in public health education and the increasing importance of preventive strategies, it is essential to evaluate EDC awareness among both current and future healthcare providers. This study aimed to assess the level of EDC awareness among Turkish medical students and physicians using a validated scale, and to examine how this awareness relates to individuals' general attitudes toward preventive health, as measured by the Healthy Life Awareness (HLA) Scale. This cross-sectional study employed the endocrine Disruptor Awareness Scale (EDCA) and the Healthy Life Awareness Scale (HLA) to assess participants' knowledge and attitudes. The survey was disseminated electronically through e-mail. We reached a total of 617 participants. Three hundred eighty-one were medical students, and 236 were physicians. The median EDC general awareness score was significantly higher in physicians compared to students (2.12[1.5] vs 2.87[1.63],
