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
Purpose: Investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP) of type 2 diabetes patients regarding continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Methods: A cross-sectional study was undertaken at the First People's Hospital of Jiujiang City from Sep 20, 2023, to Dec 10, 2023. Results: A total of 633 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus accessed the questionnaire link. Of these, 544 patients completed the questionnaires. After data cleaning, 493 questionnaires were included in the analysis, resulting in a response rate of 86% and an effective rate of 91%. Among the 493 participants, 66.9% were male, and 70.8% reported using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Median scores: knowledge 17 (14, 26), attitude 34 (32, 40), and practice 20 (17, 24). Positive correlations existed between knowledge and attitude (r = 0.562, P < 0.001), knowledge and practice (r = 0.653, P < 0.001), and attitude and practice (r = 0.661, P < 0.001). Logistic regression revealed that being male, participating in diabetes education, and possessing higher knowledge and attitude scores were independently associated with positive practices. Structural equation model (SEM) showed knowledge directly influenced attitude (β = 0.538, P = 0.010) and practice (β = 0.433, P = 0.010), while attitude directly influenced practice (β = 0.450, P = 0.010). Knowledge indirectly impacted practice through its influence on attitude (β = 0.242, P = 0.010). Conclusion: Type 2 diabetes patients exhibited insufficient knowledge but positive attitudes and practices toward CGM. Recommends educational interventions to enhance knowledge, potentially improving CGM utilization and outcomes in this population. Regular and comprehensive diabetes education should be integrated into routine clinical practice to optimize self-management and overall patient outcomes.
