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
backgroundMaternal well-being is paramount in elevating maternal, fetal, and societal health. This study aimed to examine the impact of pregnant women's sociodemographic and obstetric variables, as well as maternal health literacy, on well-being during pregnancy.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted between April and October 2024 at a public hospital in a southeastern province of Türkiye. The study was completed with the participation of 456 pregnant women who met the inclusion criteria. Data were collected utilizing the "WHO-5 Well-Being Index", the "Maternal Information Form," and the "Maternal Health Literacy Inventory in Pregnancy (MHELIP)". The statistical significance level was defined as p<0.05 for all analyses.
resultsThe study identified maternal health literacy as the most significant predictor of well-being during pregnancy (β=0.320). Additionally, perceiving income as insufficient (B=-1.872), residing in urban centers (B=-1.708), and the presence of pregnancy-related risks (B=-2.145) were found to contribute substantially to diminished well-being during pregnancy (p<0.05).
conclusionThis study found that maternal health literacy along with various maternal socio-demographic and obstetric variables are important determinants of well-being in pregnancy. These findings may provide essential insights to better comprehend the necessities for improving well-being during pregnancy, guiding policymakers and healthcare providers in developing targeted solutions. This understanding could also inform the adaptation of existing health and community services to create a health literacy-sensitive environment more likely to address the diverse health needs of pregnant women and mothers.
