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.

Sex workers were disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 pandemic due to precarious working conditions. This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2022 among 264 sex workers in Chiang Mai, Thailand, during the transition to the endemic phase, to evaluate their COVID-19 knowledge and preventive practices.

The median scores for knowledge and preventive practices were 10 (interquartile range (IQR) = 9-10) and 5 (IQR = 3-5), respectively.
