Board game-based education for HIV prevention among rural older adults: a quasi-experimental study.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Background and aim: Population aging has increased the burden of HIV infection among older adults, particularly in rural areas where access to effective health education remains limited. Traditional educational approaches often fail to engage this population. Board game-based health education has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance learning engagement and knowledge retention. Method: A quasi-experimental study was conducted among 100 rural older adults in Hunan Province, China. Participants were allocated to either an intervention group ( Results: A total of 97 participants completed the study (intervention group: Conclusion: Board game-based health education may provide a feasible, low-cost, and culturally adaptable approach for HIV prevention among rural older adults in resource-limited settings. By combining interactive learning, peer discussion, and repeated practice, this approach has potential to complement conventional community health education and support age-appropriate HIV prevention efforts. Future studies with larger samples and longer follow-up periods are needed to confirm the sustainability of the intervention effects and their translation into real-world preventive behaviors.
