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

Purpose: This study aimed to explore knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding cataracts among patients in Shenzhen. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between 1 December 2024 and 31 March 2025, at Shenzhen Eye Hospital, Shenzhen People's Hospital, and Shenzhen Nanshan People's Hospital. Data were gathered using structured questionnaires designed to measure demographic information, clinical features, and KAP scores regarding cataracts. Additionally, potential factors affecting KAP outcomes were examined through statistical analysis. Results: Among the 500 participating cataract patients, 299 (59.8%) were female, and 185 (37.0%) had previously received cataract surgery. The mean (SD) knowledge, attitude, and practice scores were 9.22 (4.35) (possible range: 0-17), 45.85 (3.78) (possible range: 11-55), and 27.18 (2.61) (possible range: 8-40), respectively. Correlation analysis showed that there were significant positive correlations between knowledge and practice (r = 0.276, Conclusion: Shenzhen cataract patients demonstrated insufficient knowledge and positive attitudes but passive practices, with attitudes directly shaping behaviors. Healthcare providers should enhance patient education and tailor communication for older populations to improve engagement and cataract management.
