Effect of a school-linked life skills intervention on adolescents' sexual and reproductive health skills in Guji zone, Ethiopia (CRT)-A generalized linear model.
Trial report in Frontiers in public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Although appropriate life skills are recognized as a fundamental right for adolescents and a critical component of health policy, they are often overlooked and rarely researched in pastoral communities. Life skills encompass the ability to adopt positive behaviors, which enable individuals to effectively deal with the demands and challenges of everyday life. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a school-linked life skills intervention program on adolescents' sexual and reproductive health skills in the pastoral community of Guji zone. Methods: A two-arm cluster randomized control trial with a pretest-posttest experimental design was conducted, involving the intervention group ( Results: Data were collected from 759 adolescents in 15 intervention and 15 control clusters. The findings have shown that the proportion of mean life skills score was significantly higher in the intervention clusters than controls [(375) 70.49% vs. (384) 62.25%, Conclusions: The implementation of a school-linked life skills intervention program proved to have a significant effect on SRH life skills development. Furthermore, individual-level and behavioral-level variables were significant in explaining variability in life skills development within the pastoral community. Therefore, we recommend scaling up this intervention in all high schools. Trial registration: Trial registration PACTR202107905622610, registered on 16 July 2021.
