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

introductionDomestic violence and abuse (DVA) is often viewed as a social issue rather than a public health concern, despite evidence to the contrary. Survivors are more likely to seek help in hospitals than at police stations, making hospital staff crucial in identifying DVA. AIM AND

objectiveThis study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to DVA among employees of a tertiary care hospital. A secondary objective was to determine the prevalence of DVA within this group. MATERIALS AND

methods

resultsOf 1,683 employees, 1,005 responded (60%). Most respondents were women aged 18-30 years (84.78%). Healthcare providers comprised 57.61%, followed by administrative (11.64%), paramedical (10.45%), and support staff (20.3%). Responses revealed persistent misconceptions and patriarchal influences surrounding DVA. Overall, 25.93% reported experiencing DVA, and 46.45% had witnessed DVA in their close environment.
