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
backgroundBrucellosis is a major bacterial infectious disease common to human beings and animals. It is considered a prevalent infection in developing countries. The present research was carried out to explore the effect of an educational intervention based on the protection motivation theory (PMT) on brucellosis preventive behaviors in rural residents over 20 years of age. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe present quasiexperimental study was conducted in 2022-23 on 96 rural residents of Mashhad, selected through a cluster sampling. The data collection instrument was a standard questionnaire to measure protection motivation including demographic variables, knowledge, and PMT constructs. The intervention and control groups completed the questionnaire immediately after and 3 months after the intervention. Five training sessions were held for the intervention group as lecture, group discussion, Q and A, and brainstorming. Data analysis was done in SPSS25 using repeated-measures analysis of variance, independent-samples
resultsThe results of analyzing knowledge showed that the mean score of knowledge in the intervention group increased from 47.16 ± 8.3 to 74.79 ± 1.69 immediately after intervention and increased to 74.18 ± 2.63 3 months after the intervention (
conclusionThe present findings showed that an educational intervention based on PMT can improve brucellosis preventive behaviors; therefore, health officials are advised to use theory-based educational interventions to prevent brucellosis in rural residents to reduce the incidence of this disease.
