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
objectivesThe diagnosis of infertility affects between 8-12% of couples of childbearing age worldwide. It is difficult to manage infertility, which often generates anxiety and depression. MATERIAL AND
methodsWe conducted a study that included women of childbearing age who were unsuccessful in getting pregnant. Our research was based on a questionnaire distributed online via social media and it was carried out over a period of two months. The questionnaire comprised 35 questions and intended to highlight the psychological impact of infertility diagnosis on the female participants in the present study.
resultsA total of 486 women with a diagnosis of infertility responded to the online questionnaire. Subjects had an average age between 31 and 40 years (58.4%) and most of them (80.2%) came from urban areas. It was found that 38.1% of patients experienced a very high level of stress generated by their infertility diagnosis and 54.7% stated that their greatest fear was that they would never get pregnant; 41.4% of these patients claimed that their quality of life was affected and 31.7% indicated a negative impact even on their couple life. Of all participants to the questionnaire, 96.6% stated that the costs of treatments or even assisted reproduction procedures were an additional stress and 73.7% believed that religion played an important moral role.
conclusionsThe women who were enrolled in the current study recognized the negative impact of their infertility diagnosis on both themselves and their couple's lives. At the same time, they believed in Divine help and looked optimistically to the future in terms of achieving pregnancy.
