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
objectiveTo explore the factors influencing physicians' intentions to use Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to treat coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
methodsA cross-sectional, self-report online survey was conducted from March 16, 2020, to April 2, 2020, in China. Participants were recruited through convenience and snowball sampling. Data were collected by using a self-designed questionnaire based on the Theory of Planned Behavior. Structural equation modeling was used for data analysis.
resultsA total of 494 physicians were enrolled in this study. Overall, the model explained 75.4% and 75.5% of the total variance in intention and attitude, respectively. Specifically, attitudes (β = 0.467, P < 0.001), past behavior (β = 0.384, P < 0.05), subjective norms (SN) (β = 0.177, P < 0.001), and perceived behavioral control (PBC) (β = 0.133, P < 0.05) significantly affected physicians' intention to use TCM. Cognition (β = 0.606, P < 0.001) and PBC (β = 0.569, P < 0.01) significantly influenced physicians' attitudes toward using TCM. SN (β = 0.064, P = 0.263) was not a factor affecting attitude.
conclusionPhysicians' intention to use TCM was significantly associated with attitude, past behavior, PBC, and SN. The findings may not only be useful for understanding the influencing factors and paths of physicians' intention to use TCM to treat COVID-19 but also provide a reference for health authorities and policymakers to promote physicians to utilize TCM.
