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

backgroundThis study aims to investigate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding keratopathy among diabetic patients.

methodsA web-based cross-sectional study was conducted between May 26, 2023, and September 18, 2023, at Yantai Shan Hospital and Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital. Demographic information and KAP were assessed through the distribution of questionnaires.

resultsAmong the 521 participants, average knowledge, attitude, and practice scores were 6.11 ± 4.53, 27.61 ± 4.41, and 37.25 ± 5.21, respectively. Path analysis revealed a significant association between attitude and knowledge (β = 0.416, P < 0.001), and practice(β = 0.683, P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression indicated that attitude score (OR = 1.288, 95%CI: 1.203-1.379, P < 0.001), higher monthly incomes(> 10000 RMB) (OR = 3.494, 95%CI: 1.104-11.055, P = 0.033), higher self-rated control levels(4 and 5 points) (OR = 3.729, 95%CI: 1.687-8.243, P = 0.001 and OR = 3.801, 95%CI: 1.560-9.261, P = 0.003 respectively) and family history of ophthalmic diseases (OR = 0.297, 95%CI: 0.115-0.762, P = 0.012) were independently associated with proactive practice.

conclusionDiabetic patients demonstrated inadequate knowledge, moderately positive attitudes, and reasonably proactive practices concerning keratopathy. The study emphasizes the impact of attitude on practice, influenced by knowledge and other factors such as self-rated blood sugar control and family history of ophthalmic diseases.
