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

backgroundMATERIALS AND

methodsA community-based cross-sectional study was conducted from January to March 2025 among 577 residents aged ≥20 years in one city and nine districts of Champasak Province, southern Lao PDR. Participants were selected using multi-stage random sampling. Data were obtained through a validated structured questionnaire covering demographics, knowledge, perceived behavioral control, social support, and preventive behaviors. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation, and multiple linear regression at a significance level of

resultsOverall, 40.21% of participants had low knowledge, while 81.28% reported moderate preventive behaviors. Preventive behaviors were positively correlated with education, knowledge, perceived behavioral control, and social support, but negatively with age. Regression analysis showed that social support (β =0.36, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.28-0.44,

conclusionSocial support, knowledge, and perceived behavioral control significantly influence preventive behaviors against OV/CCA. Strengthening community engagement and behavioral self-efficacy may improve long-term prevention outcomes.
