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

Health literacy is an essential social determinant of health and has been associated with positive health outcomes. While many sources of health information are widely available, people of different ages also have diverse social contexts and preferences for health information sources. This study aimed to identify health information sources and socio-demographics influencing health literacy in different social contexts across age groups: 15-29 years (young), 30-59 years (middle-age), and ≥60 years (elderly). We obtained secondary data from a cross-sectional study in northern Thailand from March to August 2019. Multivariate linear regression with age group subgroup analysis was used to determine factors associated with general health literacy by the Thai version of the health literacy questionnaire. Receiving health information from physicians was significantly associated with higher general health literacy in young (β 6.45, 95%CI 0.44-12.45;
