Positive outcomes of disease awareness information conveyed by high school students to their guardians.
Article in Fukushima journal of medical science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
backgroundThis questionnaire-based study aimed to evaluate whether health information conveyed by high school students can encourage their guardians to undergo annual health checks, regardless of their guardians' health literacy (HL) level.
methodsAfter a lecture to students by an internist on lifestyle-related diseases and chronic kidney disease (CKD), we asked their guardians (n = 1,027) if the students had shared information about the lecture with them and their willingness to participate in an annual health check. We also measured guardian HL using a self-administered questionnaire from which an HL score (minimum=1;maximum=5) could be derived.
resultsThe median HL score (with interquartile range) of guardians was 3.8 (3.2-4.0). Guardians whose children informed them about CKD were more likely than those who were not informed to plan health checks in the year ahead, regardless of their HL level.
conclusionOur study demonstrated that the transmission of CKD information from high school students significantly encourages their guardians to schedule health checks, regardless of their HL level.
