Male partner roles in cervical cancer transmission and prevention in central Kenya: A quantitative approach.
Article in Health SA = SA Gesondheid, 2025. 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
Background: Cervical cancer continues to be fatal on a global scale, particularly impacting women during their prime years of productivity. Male partners are an important factor in transmission, prevention and control of cervical cancer. Aim: The study aimed at identifying couples' perception on the roles, patterns and factors associated with male partner involvement in transmission, prevention and control of cervical cancer. Setting: The study was conducted in three public county hospital clinics in Central Kenya. Methods: The study used cross-sectional descriptive quantitative design where a total number of 358 couples participated in the study. Results: Some of the factors that couples perceived to affect male partner's participation were individual characteristics such as marital status ( Conclusion: Couples felt that male partners had an important part to play in cervical cancer transmission, prevention and control, which was influenced by personal constructs, health care systems and family and/or community factors. Contribution: Policy makers can incorporate the study findings in policy development and implementation addressing the knowledge gaps, misconceptions and potential barriers that men may face in cervical cancer transmission, prevention and control.
