Health literacy of adolescents using hormonal contraceptives and associated factors.
Article in Revista brasileira de enfermagem, 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
objectivesto identify factors associated with the level of health literacy of adolescents using hormonal contraceptives.
methodsa descriptive, cross-sectional, and quantitative study was conducted with 147 female adolescents from five public schools. A sociodemographic questionnaire and the Health Literacy Scale-14 were administered.
resultsmost adolescents (80.3%) had high health literacy, but with low scores in functional literacy and high scores in communicative and critical literacy. The variables associated with health literacy were age (p=0.005), head of household (p=0.012), who they live with (p=0.009), and contraceptive use duration (p=0.007).
conclusionsadolescents demonstrated high levels of health literacy, but they initiated hormonal contraceptive use with low functional literacy, which may compromise their understanding of information about the method. Factors such as age, family composition, and contraceptive use duration influenced the level of health literacy.
