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
Objective: To assess pregnant women's knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding premature rupture of membranes (PROM) and associated factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University (Beijing, China) from January 10th, 2025 to February 28th, 2025. Using convenience sampling, pregnant women with gestational age ≥ 28 weeks who provided informed consent were recruited, while those with abnormal pregnancy/adverse outcomes, psychological/mental illness, or current PROM/PPROM at enrollment were excluded. Data were collected via an online questionnaire, and statistical analyses were performed using R (version 4.3.2) and Stata (SEM). Results: A total of 422 participants were included. Mean (SD) knowledge, attitude, and practice scores were 36.32 (7.91), 20.76 (3.61), and 6.91 (1.50), respectively. Using the 60% cutoff, 81.04% had good knowledge, 45.02% had positive attitude, and 84.36% had proactive practice. Proactive practice was associated with higher knowledge (OR = 1.09, 95% CI 1.04, 1.13) and attitude scores (OR = 1.20, 95% CI 1.08, 1.34) and higher monthly income. SEM showed knowledge directly affected attitude (β = 0.18) and practice (β = 0.46). Conclusions: Pregnant women showed relatively good knowledge and proactive practices, while attitudes were less favorable. Knowledge played a key role in shaping reported practices.
