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
To investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) regarding privacy protection in mobile phone use among psychiatric inpatients. This cross-sectional study recruited patients with mental disorders from Nanjing Brain Hospital between January 2023 and April 2024 using convenience sampling. A self-designed questionnaire was employed to collect general information and evaluate privacy protection-related KAP. KAP scores were classified as scores > 85% of the total were considered good, < 60% were poor, and those in between were moderate. A total of 123 questionnaires were distributed, with 120 valid responses, yielding a response rate of 97.6%. The mean total KAP score was 97.91 ± 22.27 (range 21–165), with subscale scores of 31.96 ± 11.01 (knowledge, range 0–60), 28.58 ± 8.35 (attitude, range 9–45), and 35.06 ± 7.77 (practice, range 12–60). Poor scores were observed in 67 (55.8%) participants for knowledge, 34 (28.3%) for attitude, and 56 (46.7%) for practice, with 69 (57.5%) scoring poorly across all dimensions. Higher total KAP scores were significantly associated with female sex (P < 0.01), older age (P < 0.01), mood disorders (P = 0.04), living with a spouse (P < 0.01), being married or divorced (P < 0.01), higher education (P = 0.01), and moderate-to-high economic status (P = 0.01).Psychiatric inpatients showed poor mobile privacy knowledge, needing targeted educational interventions to improve practices.
