The effect of fall-prevention education on fall-related behaviors in older adults.
Trial report in BMC public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07499895 (The Effect of Fall-Prevention Education on Fall-Related Behaviors in Older Adults), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
aimThis study aimed to examine the effect of a structured fall-prevention education program on safe fall-related behaviors among older adults.
methodThe study was conducted using a pretest-posttest parallel-group randomized controlled design. A total of 66 older adults who attended a family health center in the Central Anatolia region of Türkiye and were classified as high risk according to the Morse Fall Risk Scale were included. The intervention group received an education program consisting of two sessions delivered through interactive presentations and question-answer discussions, while the control group received an informational brochure only. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, the Morse Fall Risk Scale, and the Fall Behaviors Scale for Older Adults.
resultsA statistically significant increase was observed in fall behavior scores in the intervention group between the pretest and posttest assessments. In contrast, no significant difference was found between pretest and posttest scores in the control group. Between-group comparisons revealed that posttest scores of the intervention group were significantly higher than those of the control group.
conclusionThe structured and interactive education program was found to be effective in improving safe fall-related behaviors among older adults. Passive information-based approaches were insufficient to produce behavioral change, whereas nursing-based educational interventions that promote active participation were more effective.
