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

Context: Family physicians find it difficult to choose correct words when explaining children's symptoms and treatments. Aims: The aim of this study is to demonstrate the cross-curricular nature of health education using a case study on its implementation for junior high school students. Through this study, the potential of health education is examined to realize a method that enables students to apply what they learn in school to real-life situations. Family physicians can tailor instructions to junior high school students' learning stages. Materials and Methods: This theme focused on blood pressure, which varied among junior high school students. A total of 105 junior high school students received health education and provided valid responses. Results: Mean scores in the cognitive domain were 9.3 before, 17.4 immediately after, and 11.6 one year after the education and given. Mean scores in the affective domain were 14.4, 16.3, and 15.0, respectively. Mean psychomotor domain scores were 11.7, 15.7, and 12.8, respectively. The scores increased significantly, indicating the effectiveness of education. Science and mathematics covered several units of health education. Health education intended to be relevant to the subject matter used learning content to explain bodily processes in an easy-to-understand way. Conclusions: The study concludes that health education has value in making explicit links between subject learning and real-life applications. It enables students to gain knowledge and effectively apply subject learning to everyday situations. As family physicians will understand junior high school students' learning and tailoring instructions, they can prompt children to take care of their health.
