The effect of the Incontinence Health Belief Development Program on women's urinary incontinence awareness and health beliefs: a randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in International urogynecology journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05881850 (The Effect of the Education Program on Increasing Osteoporosis Awareness Given to Women Aged 18-49 on Osteoporosis Awareness and Osteoporosis Health Beliefs), which is not on this map. Cited by 4 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.

Abstract
introduction and hypothesisThis study is aimed at determining the effects of the Incontinence Health Belief Development Program (IHBDP) on the urinary incontinence awareness and health beliefs of women in the pre-menopausal period.
methodsThis randomized controlled study was conducted in 160 eligible women. The pre-test and post-test data of the study were collected from experimental and control groups using the Socio-Demographic Characteristics Information Form, the Incontinence Awareness Scale, the Health Belief Scale on Urinary Incontinence and Kegel Exercise, and the Broome Pelvic Muscle Self-Efficacy Scale. The IHBDP was implemented with members of the experimental group for 5 weeks.
resultsThe women in the experimental group showed a significant difference in mean scores at the end of the program on the UI Awareness Scales, the Health Belief Scale on UI, and the Kegel Exercise compared with pre-training scores (p<0.05). In the experimental group, the factor scores and the total score of the Broome Pelvic Muscle Self-Efficacy Scale also increased. Furthermore, a statistically significant total score increase (p<0.05) was observed at the end of the program (79.8±8.8) compared with before the program (35.2±19.6).
conclusionsThe training given to the women in the pre-menopausal period based on the Health Belief Model appears highly effective in raising awareness about UI, fostering beliefs about Kegel exercises and increasing pelvic floor muscle self-efficacy.
