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
Background: Given the importance of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) management, this study aims to explore the knowledge, attitudes, and practices in disease management demonstrated by healthcare workers from the nephrology department. Materials and Methods: This study is a multi-centered cross-sectional study, and adopts snowball sampling, with 530 healthcare workers being recruited to complete a questionnaire covering areas such as demographic characteristics, knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP) of DKD management. This data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and binary logistics analysis. Results: In this study, 530 healthcare workers were studied, including 94 doctors and 436 nurses. The participants were mainly from general tertiary hospitals in 14 provinces. For Chinese nurse, the results indicate that both poor knowledge level (Odds Ratio (OR) =0.63, 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.42-0.94) and having experience in further medical training in nephrology (OR=1.92, 95% CI: 1.20-3.08) are associated with the practice levels. For Chinese doctors, having not experience in further medical training in nephrology (OR=0.36, 95% CI: 0.15-0.83) are associated with their practice levels. Conclusion: In summary, Chinese doctors and nurses in this study showed positive attitudes towards DKD management, but their knowledge and practical skills were lacking. This underscores a notable gap in achieving optimal DKD care. Notably, nurses' knowledge influenced their management practices, and additional nephrology training correlated with better engagement. To improve patient care, enhancing nephrology healthcare professional training and addressing knowledge-practice disparities are recommended.
