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
backgroundantimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as a major global health concern, with antibiotic misuse and overuse being major contributing factors, particularly among adolescents. It has become essential to address this problem through educational interventions to foster responsible behavior during early life.
objectiveThe primary objective of this study was to develop and assess the effectiveness of an educational video on antimicrobial resistance in enhancing knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) among secondary school students.
methodsA quasi-experimental pretest-posttest study design was employed for this study. A sample of 133 secondary school students was selected from Jordan. A structured questionnaire was administered to assess knowledge, attitude, practice, preference for alternative medicine, and awareness/educational exposure. An educational video on antimicrobial resistance was developed and implemented as an intervention. To assess pre-post differences, a paired t-test was performed, and to control for confounding variables, a General Linear Model (GLM) analysis was conducted. To assess the associations among knowledge, attitude, and practice, correlation analysis was performed.
resultsFollowing implementation of the educational video, there were significant improvements in all knowledge, attitude, and practice domains. Knowledge improved significantly from a pretest mean of 3.56 (SD = 1.91) to a posttest mean of 6.59 (SD = 2.06) on a 9-point scale. The improvement was significant at p < 0.001, with a large effect size of 1.17. Attitude and practice also improved significantly, with large effect sizes. GLM analysis revealed that this improvement was significant even after adjustment for baseline confounders. Furthermore, correlation analysis revealed a positive correlation among knowledge, attitude, and practice, indicating a positive internal consistency for knowledge, attitude, and practice. DISCUSSION: The observed improvements suggest that culturally tailored animated educational interventions may be a useful approach for supporting adolescents' understanding, attitudes, and reported practices related to antibiotic use and antimicrobial resistance.
conclusionExposure to the culturally tailored video-based educational intervention with planned reinforcement was associated with significant improvements in antibiotic-related knowledge, attitudes, self-reported practices, and awareness among secondary school students. Given the single-group pretest-post-test design, these findings should be interpreted as improvements observed following the intervention rather than definitive evidence of causality.
