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

Introduction: Fine particulate matter (PM Methods: Caregivers were recruited at Child Development Centers during child drop-off or pick-up, with interviews scheduled at their homes or the centers. Structured questionnaires were administered to caregivers to evaluate KAP levels and identify socioeconomic predictors of protective behaviors. Results: Caregivers exhibited moderate knowledge (mean 10.44 ± 3.80 out of 22) and generally positive attitudes (30.74 ± 3.57 out of 40) toward PM Conclusions: An apparent discrepancy between caregivers' knowledge and protective practices was observed in Chiang Mai. Although high levels of concern are present, they do not always translate into effective protective actions, which may be influenced by technical misconceptions and socioeconomic barriers. Efforts focused on targeted education and subsidized protective measures could help mitigate the health burden of PM
