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

Objective: Adolescence is a sensitive stage for healthy decision-making, yet many mothers lack adequate knowledge and skills to guide their daughters' sexual health. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a mother-empowerment sexual education program in Zahedan, Iran. Methods: A quasi-experimental study was conducted in Zahedan, Iran, from May to December 2024 with 144 mothers of girls aged 11-14 years from eight health centers, randomly assigned to intervention or control groups. Mothers completed demographic questionnaires and awareness, self-efficacy, and responsiveness scales. Assessments were at baseline, one, and 12 weeks post-intervention. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Chi-square, independent Results: Mean maternal age was 35 ± 4.1 years, and daughters 12.7 ± 1.1 years. No significant baseline differences were found. After the intervention, mothers in the intervention group showed significant gains in awareness (F = 84.2, Conclusion: Structured sexual education improved maternal awareness, responsiveness, and self-efficacy; culturally sensitive programs in schools and health services may strengthen parental roles.
