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: Adolescence is a crucial stage for developing behaviors that impact long-term sexual and reproductive health, particularly in LMICs like Indonesia.This study examined the relationship between sexual education, self-efficacy, and awareness of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) prevention among secondary school students in Padang City, Indonesia. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 254 students aged 12-15 years, using self-administered questionnaires and a multi-stage stratified cluster sampling technique. Data analysis was performed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). Results: SEM revealed significant relationships between self-efficacy and STDs prevention (β=0.528, P<0.001), self-efficacy and sexual education (β=0.220, P=0.001), and sexual education and STDs prevention (β=0.218, P=0.001). Conclusion: These findings highlight the importance of self-efficacy as a mediator in enhancing the effectiveness of sexual education programs, suggesting that boosting students' confidence in their ability to protect themselves can improve STDs prevention behaviors.
