The intention for cesarean section scale: Turkish validity and reliability study.
Article in Revista da Associacao Medica Brasileira (1992), 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
objectiveIn recent years, cesarean section rates have been increasing worldwide. Identifying changes in birth preferences during pregnancy is crucial for reducing cesarean section rates.
aimThe aim of this study was to determine the Turkish validity and reliability of the Theory-Based Intention for cesarean section scale, originally developed by Naghibi et al.
methodsThis methodological study was conducted with 300 pregnant women. Data were collected using the Introductory Information Form and the Theory-Based Intention for cesarean section scale. Analyses were performed using IBM SPSS 25.0 and AMOS 22.0. Language validity was evaluated through translation from the original Persian into Turkish as well as from English into Turkish. Content validity was calculated with nine experts using the Davis technique, and a pilot test was conducted with 30 pregnant women. Construct validity was assessed through Exploratory Factor Analysis and Confirmatory Factor Analysis. Internal consistency was examined with Cronbach's Alpha coefficient and test-retest reliability.
resultsExploratory Factor Analysis revealed a five-factor structure with 24 items for the scale. According to Confirmatory Factor Analysis, the model fit indices indicated a good model fit. The Cronbach's Alpha coefficient of the scale was 0.76. The item-total correlations and test-retest reliability of the scale were found to be high.
conclusionThe Theory-Based Intention for cesarean section scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool for use among Turkish pregnant women.
