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
introductionCulturally appropriate scales are needed to efficiently assess stigma among Arabic-speaking communities. This study aimed to validate the Arabic version of the Dementia Diagnosis Attitude Scale (A-DDAS).
methodsThe translated A-DDAS underwent pre-testing with native speakers in Australia. The final version of the scale was tested with Arabic-speaking adults aged ≥ 18 residing in Australia. The sample (
resultsThe final 10-item scale consisted of two factors with five items each: "fear of labelling" (α = 0.88) and "fear of discrimination" (α = 0.85), with inter-factor correlation DISCUSSION: The A-DDAS yielded good validity and reliability scores, confirming its suitability for use with Arabic-speaking Australians in stigma studies, educational interventions, and clinical settings.
