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

In this response to the Letter to the Editor regarding our article "Knowledge and Awareness of Tourette's Syndrome among Teachers in Eastern Region, Saudi Arabia", we address the correspondents' methodological observations. We clarify that our questionnaire-based assessment was deliberately designed to measure declarative knowledge (the "knows" level of Miller's pyramid) rather than applied classroom competence. We acknowledge the correspondents' caution about dichotomising continuous variables using Bloom's cutoff points and confirm that sensitivity analyses using continuous scoring yielded consistent conclusions. We thank the correspondents for their scholarly engagement and agree that future research should incorporate performance-based assessments and continuous scoring approaches.
