Development and validation of a scale for assessing community adults' knowledge, attitude and practice toward adult snoring.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: This study aimed to develop and validate a scale for assessing community adults' knowledge-attitude-practice toward Adult Snoring. Methods: A total of 1,198 Chinese community adults were included in the development of this scale. An initial item pool was first constructed through literature review and qualitative interviews; after item optimization through Delphi expert consultation and pre-survey, the scale structure was determined through item screening, exploratory factor analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis, with reliability and validity tests also completed. Results: The scale comprised 32 items, with 18, 7, and 7 items, respectively, for knowledge dimension, attitude dimension, and practice dimension. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses supported three dimensions and five factors (basic cognition, causes and risk factors, snoring harm, attitude, and practices). Internal consistency for the total scale was high (Cronbach's Conclusion: The scale demonstrates excellent psychometric properties, making it a reliable and valid tool for assessing community adults' knowledge, attitude, and practice toward Adult Snoring. Identifying gaps in knowledge, attitudes, and practices about adult snoring among community adults supports the development of effective prevention-oriented health promotion strategies.
