Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of Lebanese healthcare professionals toward multidisciplinary spinal cord injury rehabilitation.
Article in Spinal cord series and cases, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
STUDY
designCross-sectional study.
objectivesTo assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of Lebanese healthcare professionals toward multidisciplinary spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation.
settingLebanon.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted between April and June 2024 among physicians, nurses, and rehabilitation professionals involved in SCI care in Lebanon. Participants completed an anonymous online questionnaire assessing sociodemographic characteristics and KAP related to SCI rehabilitation. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, bivariate analyses, and multiple linear regression.
resultsA total of 110 healthcare professionals participated; 61.8% were aged ≤35 years and 62.7% held postgraduate degrees. The mean knowledge score was 58.5 (SD 13.0), with 88.1% scoring below the adequate threshold. Attitudes were generally positive, with a mean score of 70.1 (SD 19.5), and 68.8% scored above the threshold. Practice scores were low (mean 42.5, SD 23.2), with only 32.1% demonstrating adequate practices. Higher knowledge and practice scores were associated with postgraduate education, longer experience, and working in rehabilitation settings. Lower attitude scores were observed among males and professionals managing acute referrals.
conclusionLebanese healthcare professionals demonstrated positive attitudes but insufficient knowledge and practices regarding multidisciplinary SCI rehabilitation, highlighting the need for targeted training and stronger interdisciplinary rehabilitation systems.
