Evaluating the effectiveness of web-based oral health education on enhancing mothers' awareness: a semi-experimental internet-based intervention.
Article in BMC oral health, 2024. 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
objectivesThis study examined the impact of web-based education on enhancing mothers' awareness of oral health care for children aged 9 and 12 years. It focused on the crucial role of mothers in educating about oral health to prevent dental diseases and reduce long-term healthcare costs.
methodsMothers were divided into three groups: control, intervention with a web system, and intervention with a brochure. Over one month, their knowledge about their children's oral health was assessed before and after the intervention.
resultsData were analyzed using parametric t-tests and non-parametric Mann-Whitney U tests. The findings indicated a significant increase in parental awareness in both intervention groups.
conclusionIt is recommended that parent education be done using web-based systems or mobile apps, which are better choices due to greater accessibility and interactivity.
