Promotion of nutritional behaviors in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases: application of the health belief model in primary health care centers.
Article in BMC primary care, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundCardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the most important cause of death in many countries of the world, including Iran. This study aimed to investigate the effect of educational intervention based on the Health Belief Model (HBM) on the promotion of nutritional behaviors to prevent CVD among the all people (aged 30-59 years).
methodsThis semi-experimental study was conducted on all people (aged 30-59 years) referring to the primary healthcare centers of Jahorm city, southern Iran, from September 2021 to July 2022. In this study, 100 participants (50 participants for the intervention group and 50 for the control group) were selected using a multistage cluster random sampling method. The data collection tool was a questionnaire with confirmed validity and reliability. Also, the food consumption frequency checklist was used. The educational intervention included holding four sessions, each lasting for 60 min. The methods used for training included lectures, questions and answers, and group discussions. Before the intervention and three months after, the intervention and control groups completed the questionnaire. The obtained data were analyzed by SPSS 17.
resultsafter the educational intervention, the mean score of knowledge (4.84 ± 0.84; 2.76 ± 1.41; p < 0.001), perceived susceptibility (9.52 ± 1.81; 8.76 ± 1.9; p = 0.004), perceived severity (14.78 ± 1.66; 13.80 ± 2.23; p = 0.015), perceived benefits (10.66 ± 1.79; 7.52 ± 1.99; p < 0.001), perceived barriers (5.92 ± 2.81; 12.68 ± 10.24; p < 0.001) and practice (178.78 ± 14.35; 147.36 ± 13.19; p < 0.001) showed a significant difference between the intervention and control groups.
conclusionThe results showed that the educational intervention effectively improved people (aged 30-59 years) knowledge and HBM constructs to prevent CVD. Also, improving people's performance regarding CVD prevention behaviors will be successful by implementing an educational intervention based on the HBM.
