How effective is digital educational content in shaping fertility awareness? An interventional, cross-sectional study.
Article in Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
purposeTo determine whether exposure to digital educational content affects fertility awareness and attitudes towards fertility preservation treatments?
methodsA total of 957 women ages 20 to 45 years participated in this internet-based, interventional, cross-sectional study. A questionnaire assessing knowledge of the reproductive span and attitudes towards fertility preservation treatment was completed by these women before and after exposure to online educational content on ovarian reserve and fertility preservation treatments. Responses before and after exposure to the educational content were compared.
resultsKnowledge about female age-related fertility decline improved significantly after exposure to educational content (51.6% vs. 79.6%, p < 0.001). Increased willingness to pursue fertility preservation treatments (38.6% vs. 42.9%, p < 0.001) and to recommend fertility preservation treatments to friends (55% vs. 65.2%, p < 0.001) was observed. Participants who desired to conceive were more positively influenced by the exposure to educational content in their attitudes towards fertility treatments compared to those who do not desire to conceive.
conclusionsOnline educational content has the potential to improve fertility awareness and shape a more positive attitude towards fertility preservation treatments for the public.
