Measuring Menstrual Health Literacy: Development and validation of the Menstrual Health Literacy Scale.
Article in Journal of health psychology, 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
Menstrual health literacy (MHL) is associated with better menstrual health management and greater understanding of how menstruation can impact general health and wellbeing. This article outlines the development and psychometric validation of the 22-item Menstrual Health Literacy Scale (MHLS-22), the first psychometric scale to measure MHL, and proposes a novel conceptual definition of MHL. Development of the MHLS-22 involved initial item generation, content validity analysis, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, and convergent and discriminant validity testing. These psychometric analyses provide support for the validity and reliability of the MHLS-22. The MHLS-22 is the first psychometric scale to measure MHL and is suitable for use in the evaluation and development of interventions targeting MHL.
