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: Health science popularization short videos have become one of the main sources of acquiring disease-related information. However, the quality of such videos on popular short video platforms varies considerably. This study aims to evaluate the quality of the health science popularization short videos about cerebrovascular diseases on two popular short video platforms (TikTok and Kuaishou) in China. Methods: Using Python web crawler, short videos related to cerebrovascular diseases were collected from TikTok and Kuaishou in China, posted from December 10th, 2023, to December 10th, 2024. Ultimately, 915 valid videos were included. Two clinical experts evaluated the quality of the included videos using GQS, mDISCERN, and PEMAT-A/V independently. The median (IQR) was used to describe the features of the short videos, and the Results: Health science popularization short videos related to cerebrovascular diseases on the TikTok platform showed significantly more likes, favorites, comments, and shares ( Conclusion: Health science popularization short videos related to cerebrovascular diseases on TikTok and Kuaishou showed a moderate quality, and the quality of the health science popularization short videos on TikTok was better than those on Kuaishou. Video duration was a key determinant of video quality.
