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
Background: Hemodialysis, as one of the main alternative treatment methods for end-stage renal disease, has received much attention in recent years. Due to the particularity of hemodialysis treatment, patients have a relatively high risk of infection during the treatment process. Hemodialysis nurses, who are the main executors of the treatment operations and have the most contact with patients, have a close relationship with the infection risk of patients. The level of their hospital infection prevention and control literacy is closely related to the infection risk of patients. Objective: To explore the current level of knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of hospital infection prevention and control among haemodialysis nurses in the Sichuan Province, China, and identified their potential categories. This provided evidence-based recommendations for improving infection control management in hemodialysis departments. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted From July 15 to August 15, 2025 using a convenience sampling method to survey 470 hemodialysis nurses from 78 hospitals in Sichuan Province. Participants were licensed nurses with over 3 months of hemodialysis experience. Data were collected using the Results: A total of 460 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 97.87%. The average scores for knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to hospital infection prevention and control among haemodialysis nurses were 4.67 ± 0.43, 4.59 ± 0.43, and 4.74 ± 0.34, respectively. Three latent profile models were constructed, with the two-class model identified as the optimal solution, which were defined as the "Low KAP Group" (25.9%) and "High KAP Group" (74.1%). Logistic regression analysis revealed that sex, responsibility for infection control, hospital level, annual number of infection control training sessions, organizational support, and work engagement were significant influencing factors ( Conclusion: The KAP level of haemodialysis nurses in hospital infection prevention and control was relatively high. Hospital managers should tailor supportive work environments on the basis of the individual characteristics and work engagement of haemodialysis nurses to improve the KAP level of nosocomial infection prevention and control among haemodialysis nurses.
