1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) are prevalent among teenagers, yet understanding of them is limited. This study aimed to evaluate adolescents' awareness of FGIDs, identify factors influencing this awareness, and assess adolescents' health education needs, thereby providing evidence for targeted health education strategies. A nationwide cross-sectional survey conducted from June to August 2024 assessed 1,612 adolescents aged 10-19 years. Despite the survey's broad scope, only 4.7% exhibited a systematic understanding of FGIDs, and merely 3.7% reported high familiarity, underscoring a pronounced knowledge deficit in this population. The majority of respondents (39.8%) were only familiar with it, while 25% had not heard of it. Marked disparities in awareness were identified based on growth environment, level of education, boarding status, caregiver type, personality traits, participation in social activities, and the experience of FGIDs by respondents or their contacts (
