Pregnancy-Related Anxiety in Women Who Conceive Via In Vitro Fertilization: A Mixed Methods Approach.
Article in The Journal of perinatal education, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
The process of in vitro fertilization (IVF) causes anxiety, but it is unclear whether this anxiety continues into pregnancy and affects childbirth preparation. This study administered the pregnancy-related anxiety measure to 144 women during their second trimester. Anxiety scores were slightly higher among IVF compared to non-IVF pregnant women. Thirty-one participants provided narrative data about their pregnancy-specific anxiety. Themes emerged from qualitative analysis related to anxiety about the health of their babies, perception of maternal health and safety, and perception of their abilities to fulfill the role of mother. Because of their relationship with patients during pregnancy, nurses and perinatal educators play a critical role in identification of women with pregnancy-specific anxieties and providing relevant care to address these anxieties.
