From clinics to classrooms: physicians play an essential role in transforming comprehensive sexuality education.
Review in Reproductive 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
backgroundComprehensive sexuality education (CSE) equips youth with knowledge, life skills and attitudes to achieve healthy respectful relationships, and reach their optimal life and reproductive goals. This paper provides an overview of the current state of CSE globally, explores the challenges and facilitators to CSE implementation, and discusses the untapped agency of clinicians and professional medical societies in improving CSE delivery. BODY: Best practice CSE is implemented within school-based curricula taking a life-course approach (from childhood and beyond). CSE is enshrined within the right to education, health and well-being. The aspiration is for all youth to have access to CSE to reach their full potential. Great gains have been made, but there are significant economic, geographic and cultural barriers to implementation globally, leaving youth at risk for unwanted pregnancy, sexual violence, sexually transmitted infection, adversely impacting their future productivity and independence. Physicians have the potential to play a significant role in multiple domains of CSE including policy, advocacy and research. However, there is a need for physicians to develop policy skills and experience through dedicated medical education.
conclusionLeveraging health providers beyond the clinic space can deliver significant population benefits for policy and practice and can help build capacity in the next generation of providers for delivering CSE-solutions for the future.
