1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: The study aimed to assess poultry farmers' (PF) knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) about the utilization of vaccines for the prevention of infectious illnesses. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional investigation was carried out involving 260 respondents in the northern area of Bangladesh. Data were collected by structured questionnaires with randomly selected participants. The analysis used descriptive statistics and logistic regression. Results: Most respondents were male (81.5%), aged 31-40 years (32.3%), with secondary education (27.7%), as well as vaccination training (30.8%). Although 63.1% of participants were aware of immunizations, only 41.5% recognized they prevented zoonotic infections, and 66.9% reduced antibiotic use. Remarkably, 67.7% knew about the bad effects, and 70.8% said they are vaccinating their chicken flocks. Overall, 41.5%, 48.5%, and 29.2% of the farmers demonstrated good knowledge and a positive attitude, as well as performed better practices. Multivariable analyses found that male farmers aged over 50 years with 3-5 years of broiler farming expertise and having undergone vaccination training demonstrated a higher likelihood of possessing substantial knowledge regarding vaccine utilization. Accordingly, favorable attitudes were connected with male farmers aged over 50 years and having 3-5 years of broiler farming experience. Farmers who engaged in broiler farming demonstrated a higher likelihood of exhibiting effective vaccination practices only. Conclusion: The study highlights gaps in farmers' KAP related to vaccine usage. It is essential to create targeted educational as well as training programs to effectively address these gaps and prevent possible poultry illnesses.
