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: Adolescents frequently encounter contraceptive information online. Our objective was to evaluate the feasibility and pilot outcomes of a clinician training module designed to support counseling about online contraceptive information. Methods: We co-developed a contraceptive counseling training with community advisory boards. We recruited adolescent-serving clinicians across North Carolina to participate in the virtual 3-hour training. One of the five modules was Results: 35 clinicians participated, with 27 (77%) completing the 4-month interview. Immediately post-intervention, the module was perceived as acceptable (mean=4.6, SD 0.5), appropriate (4.7, 0.5), and feasible (4.6, 0.5) on a 5-point scale. Participants showed immediate and 4-month increases in knowledge, beliefs, self-efficacy, and self-reported counseling behaviors (p<0.05). Qualitative results indicated that participants liked the module and many reported adapting their counseling approach and/or providing new patient-facing resources. However, they faced barriers like time constraints and difficulty remaining abreast of social media information. They recommended inclusion of specific social media posts (versus overarching themes) and a more accessible resource toolkit. Conclusions: This module demonstrated feasibility, with clinician-reported pilot outcomes showing increases at both immediate post-intervention and 4-month follow-up. This intervention is among the first developed to support person-centered counseling about online contraceptive information and warrants further investigation in a rigorous trial.
