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
BackgroundVenous thromboembolism (VTE), the third leading cause of cardiovascular mortality, is a common but preventable complication in hospitalized patients. However, VTE prophylaxis remains underutilized. This study aims to explore physicians' knowledge, attitudes, practices (KAP) regarding VTE prevention in Chinese public hospitals and their interrelationships to inform improvement strategies.MethodsA cross-sectional, multicenter online survey was conducted using a KAP-based questionnaire distributed to physicians in Chinese public hospitals. Data analysis integrated descriptive statistics, Pearson correlations, and structural equation modeling (SEM).ResultsAmong 787 valid responses, KAP scores were positive (Knowledge: 4.00 ± 0.81; Attitude: 4.38 ± 0.78; Practice: 4.38 ± 0.82). Scores on knowledge of intermittent pneumatic compression usage (3.40 ± 1.24) and VTE risk assessment tools (3.98 ± 1.08) were relatively low, while only 23% and 40% of physicians reported being very familiar with them, respectively. About half strongly agreed on performing dynamic VTE/bleeding risk assessments and tailoring prophylactic measures accordingly. Poor patient awareness and adherence also hindered VTE prevention. Positive correlations were observed among KAP domains (
