Effect of health education based on the Transtheoretical Model on pregnant women's knowledge, attitudes, and practices toward painless delivery: 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: Traditional methods have limited reach and sustainability and often fail to increase the actual uptake of epidural analgesia. This study explored the impact of health education grounded in the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) on primiparous women's knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding painless delivery, as well as associated delivery outcomes. Materials and methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted at Wuhan Children's Hospital from December 2024 to April 2025. Eligible primiparous women planning vaginal delivery were assigned to the TTM-based intervention group or the routine education group according to enrollment sequence. All participants received epidural analgesia during labor. Baseline and post-intervention assessments measured KAP using a self-developed questionnaire, and childbirth experience using the Chinese version of the Childbirth Experience Questionnaire (CEQ-C). Results: A total of 148 women were enrolled (TTM group: Conclusion: TTM-based individualized education significantly improves KAP levels in primiparous women. These findings suggest that implementing TTM interventions in clinical practice can optimize perinatal education.
