Effects of sexual health education during pregnancy on sexual myths, sexual function, and quality of sexual life: a randomized controlled study.
Trial report in BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06735677 (Effects of Sexual Health Education During Pregnancy on Sexual Myths, Sexual Function, and Quality of Sexual Life), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
backgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the impact of sexual health training on sexual myths, sexual function, and the quality of sexual life among pregnant women.
methodsThe study employed a pretest-posttest design. Participants were randomly assigned to either the intervention group (n = 45) or the control group (n = 45). Both groups completed a sociodemographic data form, a questionnaire on myths about sexual activity during pregnancy, the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), and the Sexual Quality of Life-Female (SQOL-F) questionnaire.
resultsThe mean age of the participants was 27.58 ± 5.36 years, and the mean gestational age was 35.14 ± 5.52 weeks. After receiving sexual health training, women in the intervention group showed an increase in their SQOL-F scores and a decrease in their belief in sexual myths (p < 0.05). No significant differences were observed between the groups regarding educational level, desire for the current pregnancy, and the frequency of sexual intercourse before and during pregnancy (p > 0.05).
conclusionsThe sexual function of the participants was found to be inadequate. However, after receiving sexual health/reproductive health training, their sexual quality of life and sexual function scores increased. Furthermore, their attitudes towards sexual myths significantly changed in a positive direction. These findings indicate the importance of sexual health/reproductive health training during pregnancy.
