Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Amid increasing evidence of the health risks linked to traditional combustible cigarettes, electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) have become widely adopted. However, the rise in e-cigarette use also poses emerging health risks. This study examines the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) related to e-cigarette use among the general population in Saudi Arabia. Methods: This cross-sectional study collected data through a structured, self-administered online questionnaire from 1,233 participants during the period from 10 April 2025 to 4 May 2025. Descriptive statistics, including frequencies and percentages, were used to summarise participants' demographic and socio-economic characteristics. Chi-square ( Results: The mean knowledge score was 9.50 (SD = 3.49, range: 0-15), with approximately two-thirds of the sample ( Conclusion: This study demonstrated positive correlations among knowledge, attitude, and practice of e-cigarettes, emphasising that tailored, nationwide awareness campaigns addressing diverse socio-demographic profiles can improve knowledge, modify attitudes, and ultimately reduce e-cigarette use.
