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

objectiveThis study aims to examine the impact of zero-waste training on young people's perceptions and behaviors.

methodsIt is a quasi-experimental design with repeated measures in a single group. One week after the pre-test, participants received information on waste management and the zero-waste project, including waste types, sorting, risks, and current approaches. Data were collected one month and six months after the training.

resultsThe results indicated that the training and zero-waste posters positively impacted young people's knowledge, perceptions, and behaviors. In addition to promoting environmental sustainability, zero-waste education plays a critical role in protecting public health. Despite the six-month gap, the training led to lasting awareness of zero-waste.

conclusionZero waste training programs should be integrated into national environmental and health policies. Environmental awareness raised through education can contribute to more effective implementation of waste management strategies across the country and protect public health. The findings also highlight the important role of public health nurses in promoting environmental health awareness and sustainable waste management behaviors through community-based educational interventions.
