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

objectiveThis study used the Knowledge and Access Power (KAP) mobile platform to assess the awareness and knowledge of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) among adolescents in the Greater Accra and Eastern Regions of Ghana.

methodsA mobile application, referred to as the KAP app was designed to assess SRH awareness and knowledge. To evaluate SRH awareness and knowledge among adolescents, an invitation to download and access the mobile application was sent via social media platforms, including Twitter, Facebook, and WhatsApp. A total of 386 adolescents downloaded the app and attempted the pre- and post-module quizzes.

resultsFrom the quiz participation snapshot data, users attempted 1,040 quizzes. Descriptive statistics revealed that the overall average score received on SRH before completing the learning modules was 67.98 (SD = 26.597), while the overall average score gained on SRH after completing the learning modules was 73.66 (SD = 25.142). The pre- and post-module SRH scores were compared using a paired samples t-test, and the results showed a statistically significant difference between the two sets of scores [t(182) = -2.58, p = 0.010]. Based on these findings, using the KAP app can help increase SRH knowledge among teenagers.
