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

Poor nutrition knowledge and unhealthy eating habits are major contributors to the global rise in non-communicable diseases. Despite the abundance of nutrition information, many individuals struggle with adopting and maintaining healthy eating patterns. This study assessed the association between nutrition knowledge and eating habits among healthcare workers (HCWs) at a tertiary hospital in the Limpopo province of South Africa. A cross-sectional, descriptive study was conducted among 303 healthcare workers. The data collection period was from the 18 of April to the 5 of May in 2023. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire consisting of three sections: demographic information, nutrition knowledge, and eating habits. Descriptive and inferential statistics were applied, with a significance level set at
