Knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding mosquito-borne diseases in an urban sector of southwestern Colombia.

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: Mosquito-borne diseases (MBD) continue to represent a critical public health challenge, particularly in tropical regions where environmental and socioeconomic factors facilitate transmission. Methods and materials: This study assessed the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) related to MBD among 172 residents of an urban area in Santander de Quilichao, Colombia. A structured survey, validated and adapted from the Pan American Health Organization, was performed for data collection. Results: The mean knowledge score was 57%, indicating moderate awareness of MBD. While 63.4% of participants reported adequate preventive practices, the majority (94.8%) demonstrated indifferent attitudes toward MBD prevention. Multinomial logistic regression analysis revealed a statistically significant association between marital status and knowledge levels ( Conclusion: These findings emphasize the need for targeted community engagement and educational interventions. Incorporating KAP assessments into public health strategies can enhance the design and implementation of effective educational and vector control programs in urban areas of tropical countries.
