Increasing Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission (PMTCT) Uptake through Facility-Based Health Promotion: Intervention Development.
Article in Behavioral sciences (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
In Sudan, the HIV testing rates during pregnancy remain low. Limitations in scaling and uptake of PMTCT services are linked to several factors within the healthcare system, including the motivation of healthcare providers. This article describes how a health facility-based health promotion intervention plan was developed, implemented, and evaluated to increase the uptake of PMTCT services using the Intervention Mapping approach. Individual-level and environmental determinants were previously identified and included in the intervention plan. Some factors that impacted the intention of women to test for HIV during pregnancy include level of knowledge on MTCT, who offers the HIV test, the fear and tension experienced when thinking about HIV/AIDS, the non-confidentiality of the HIV test results, and self-efficacy. This provides insights into how to develop, implement, and evaluate a facility-based health promotion intervention. The pre-assessment was critical in shaping the intervention and making it relevant and evidence based. The Intervention Mapping approach that was applied facilitated the systematic design of the intervention and supported guiding the implementation.
