Effect of planned visual education on university students' attitudes and beliefs regarding skin cancer: a cluster-randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Sao Paulo medical journal = Revista paulista de medicina, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05788939 (DOES PLANNED VISUAL EDUCATION AFFECT UNIVERSITY STUDENTS' ATTITUDES AND BELIEFS ABOUT SKIN CANCER?), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
backgroundThe incidence of skin cancer is increasing globally. However, it is largely preventable through early detection. Therefore, raising public awareness through education is essential.
objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the effect of a planned visual education program-based on the Health Belief Model-on university students' attitudes and beliefs regarding skin cancer. DESIGN AND
settingThis cluster-randomized controlled trial was conducted in two departments at a university in Manisa, Türkiye.
methodsThe study was conducted with 116 university students, divided equally into an intervention group (n = 58) and a control group (n = 58). Data were collected using the Student Information Form and the Health Belief Model Scale in Skin Cancer.
resultsFollowing the visual education program based on the Health Belief Model, significant differences were observed between the intervention and control groups in perceived severity, perceived susceptibility, perceived barriers, perceived benefits, and self-efficacy scores. While the intervention group showed significant improvements across these domains, no significant difference was found in perceived severity scores.
conclusionThe findings indicate that planned visual education based on the Health Belief Model positively influenced students' attitudes and beliefs regarding skin cancer. CLINICAL
trial registrationThe research was recorded at https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05788939.
