Psychosocial profiles of bystander resuscitation among Macao residents: a latent profile analysis.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Introduction: Bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (BCPR) and public access defibrillation (PAD) are critical to improving survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). However, the rates of BCPR and PAD remain suboptimal in many Asian regions. Although psychosocial determinants of bystander resuscitation have been widely examined using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), most studies adopt variable‑centered approaches that might underestimate individual‑level heterogeneity. This study aimed to identify psychosocial profiles related to bystander resuscitation among Macao residents using a person‑centered analytic approach and to examine socio‑demographic factors associated with profile membership. Methods: A cross-sectional online survey based on TPB constructs recruited 579 community-dwelling adults through convenience and snowball sampling. Latent profile analysis was performed to identify specific psychosocial profiles. Multinomial logistic regression was used to examine the association between socio-demographic factors and profile membership. Results: Latent profile analysis revealed four distinct psychosocial profiles: reluctant, socially inhibited, technically constrained, and proactive. Willingness to provide bystander resuscitation varied significantly across profiles, with the highest in the proactive group and lowest in the reluctant group. Socially inhibited individuals showed high perceived behavioral control (PBC) despite low subjective norms, whereas technically constrained individuals demonstrated low PBC despite favorable attitudes and subjective norms. Multinomial logistic regression indicated that lack of prior resuscitation training and older age were associated with lower odds of belonging to the proactive group. Conclusion: Findings underscore the central role of PBC and highlight the value of profile‑ and age‑specific training strategies to enhance community bystander resuscitation willingness.
