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
Objective: To investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of patients diagnosed with hyperuricemia toward hyperuricemia. Methods: This cross-sectional study enrolled patients with hyperuricemia who sought medical care at Taikang Xianlin Drum Tower Hospital between September 15, 2023, and January 11, 2024. A self-administered questionnaire was developed to collect participants' socio-demographic information and KAP scores regarding hyperuricemia. The threshold for sufficient knowledge, positive attitude, and proactive practice was ≥ 70.0% of the total score. Results: This study included 483 non-problematic valid questionnaires, with a mean age of 41.83±14.13 years. The mean knowledge, attitude, and practice scores were 14.65±3.23 (66.59% of the possible maximum of 22), 40.89±4.32 (74.35% of the possible maximum of 55), and 25.66±4.54 (73.31% of the possible maximum of 35). A master's degree or above education (OR=2.555, 95%CU: 1.059-6.164, P=0.037), an income of 10,000-20,000 CNY (OR=2.216, 95% CI: 1.157-4.244, P=0.016), an income of >20,000 CNY (OR=2.237, 95% CI: 1.091-4.586, P=0.028), last uric acid test within the past year (OR=0.583, 95% CI: 0.341-0.997, P=0.049), and not taking uric acid-lowering medication (OR=0.326, 95% CI: 0.204-0.520, P<0.001) were independently associated with knowledge. The knowledge scores (OR=1.181, 95% CI: 1.100-1.269, P<0.001), attitude scores (OR=1.122, 95% CI: 1.063-1.184, P<0.001), age (OR=1.023, 95% CI: 1.005-1.041, P=0.011), current drinker (OR=0.489, 95% CI: 0.301-0.792, P=0.004), last uric acid test within 1 year (OR=0.488, 95% CI: 0.266-0.894, P=0.020), last uric acid test over 1 year ago (OR=0.297, 95% CI: 0.151-0.585, P<0.001), and high uric acid levels at the last test (OR=0.542, 95% CI: 0.299-0.980, P=0.043) were independently associated with practice. The structured equation model showed that knowledge positively influenced attitude (β=0.676, P<0.001) and practice (β=0.494, P=0.002). Attitude positively influenced practice (β=0.624, P<0.001). Conclusion: Patients with hyperuricemia have insufficient knowledge but a positive attitude and proactive practice toward hyperuricemia. Educational and motivational interventions should be designed to improve practice.
