1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundUnderstanding reproductive anatomy and physiology is essential for safe wealthy sexual practices as well as reproductive attitudes. It has been advised that comprehensive sexual reproductive health (SRH) education should be provided in educational systems, colleges, and communities. We aimed to explore the knowledge about the reproductive system among first-year students in non-medical health schools.

methodA pre-validated questionnaire was distributed among first year non-medical health care school students in two universities.

resultsA number of 384 students were included. The average score of knowledge was 14.12 out of 42, Female students scored higher than males (15.06 versus 11.54).

conclusionFrom the results of the current study, it appears that Jordanian students do not study enough about reproductive systems. It is recommended that the school curricula in the fields about reproductive systems, need to be reassessed and reformed, teachers need to be trained for better teaching strategies about reproductive subjects as well.
