Psychotherapeutic intervention on breast self-examination based on Health Belief Model.
Article in Current psychology (New Brunswick, N.J.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06837428 (Peer Comparison-based Risk Communication), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 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.

Abstract
The aim of this research was to verify the effectiveness of a Health Belief Model-based intervention in increasing knowledge and changing beliefs about breast cancer and its early detection as well as in improving breast self-examination behaviors. This randomized controlled clinical trial involved 210 women. The program was implemented by email and involved sending daily messages to participants for 30 days. The women in the intervention group received messages aimed at increasing the practice of breast self-examination behavior. Participants in the control group received messages promoting general health. Before and after the intervention there were evaluated the application of breast self-examination, level of knowledge, beliefs associated with health (susceptibility to develop breast cancer, disease severity, benefits of self-examination, barriers to achieving this behavior, cues to action, self-efficacy in performing self-examination). At the end of the program, a significant improvement in the perception of disease severity and the benefits of breast self-examination was obtained, as well as a significant increase in the percentage of participants who achieved this behavior. The results obtained are arguments for it to be implemented by health care providers who want to promote self-examination as a method of early detection of breast cancer.
