Health Belief Model-based Intervention on Women's Knowledge and Perceived Beliefs about Warning Signs of Cancer.
Article in Asia-Pacific journal of oncology nursing. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveEarly detection of cancers essentially depends on knowledge of the warning signs. This study, therefore, aimed at investigating the effect of Health Belief Model (HBM)-based educational intervention on the knowledge and perceived beliefs of women about the warning signs of cancer.
methodsThis experimental study with intervention (
resultsThe results of the multivariate repeated-measures analyses of variance indicated that the hypothesis of this study was confirmed. It means that "women's knowledge and their perceived beliefs of cancer warning signs" improved after HBM-based educational intervention in the intervention group, compared to the controls over time. Thus, the "level of knowledge" and perceived beliefs of the women in the intervention group compared to the controls increased, in terms of perceived "sensitivity," "severity," "benefits," "barriers," "cue to action," and "self-efficacy" over time (
conclusionsIt could be hoped that this intervention would be effective for improving the performance of women in health-promoting behaviors of cancer prevention. It is recommended that health-care providers plan for HBM-based educational interventions, based on educational needs of the target groups at different community levels.
