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

Background: We examined the factors associated with knowledge of hypertension risk factors and symptoms among Gambian women. Methods: This cross-section study was based on 11, 865 female participants (aged 15-49 years) of The Gambia Demographic and Health Survey 2019-2020. We performed descriptive statistics, and multivariate-adjusted logistic regression models. Results: Only 34.89 % and 36.82 % of the participants knew at least one risk factor and symptom of hypertension, respectively. Women who had never measured their blood pressure had a reduced odds of knowing a hypertension risk factor (OR = 0.68; 95 %CI: 0.60---0.77;
