Personal Menstrual Health Knowledge in Individuals With Intellectual Disabilities.
Article in Journal of applied research in intellectual disabilities : JARID, 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
backgroundIndividuals with intellectual disabilities are at risk of having poor health literacy related to menstrual health due to persistent barriers in accessing education, healthcare, and tailored resources; however, no research has explored this.
objectiveThe primary objective of this study is to assess menstrual health knowledge in individuals with intellectual disabilities.
methodA cross-sectional survey design was used. Data were collected from 75 Special Olympics athletes (age 37.3 years) using a subset of questions from the Socio-Sexual Knowledge and Attitudes Test-Revised (SSKAAT-R).
resultsThe final analyses included 72 participants. Total scores on the SSKAAT-R ranged from 0-8, with a median total score of 5. Few participants (n = 25; 35%) were able to correctly respond to questions related to hygiene practices, with 65% (n = 47) responding incorrectly.
conclusionFuture research should focus on addressing the critical need for inclusive and accessible menstrual health education and resources for this population.
