Knowledge, attitude, and practice toward hyperuricemia among healthcare workers in Shandong, China.
Article in PeerJ, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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: Hyperuricemia is a relatively common condition, with a prevalence of over 20% among the general population. Also, most patients initially present no symptoms. This study aimed to investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) toward hyperuricemia among healthcare workers in Shandong, China. Methods: Healthcare workers were recruited in this cross-sectional study conducted in Shandong in December 2022. A self-designed questionnaire was used to collect demographic information and KAP data. Results: A total of 372 questionnaires were distributed, and 216 (58.06%) valid questionnaires were collected from 131 physicians, 80 nurses, and five other healthcare workers. The participants had a mean score of 10.76 ± 2.53 (possible range: 0-14, 76.9%) and 31.94 ± 2.58 (possible range: 0-40, 79.9%) in knowledge and attitude, respectively. The physicians' and nurses' practice scores were 47.57 ± 5.34 (possible range: 0-55, 86.5%) and 30.06 ± 4.11 (possible range: 0-35, 85.9%), respectively. The attitude scores were independently associated with proactive practice in both physicians ( Conclusion: This study found that healthcare workers in Shandong had adequate knowledge, positive attitudes, and proactive practices towards hyperuricemia. However, there is room for improvement in the attitudes of both physicians and nurses to achieve better practice.
