1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundThe purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of mindfulness-based art therapy (MBAT) in promoting life style in Iranian menopausal women.

methodsThis study was a quasi experimental study that was conducted on 104 menopausal women in Neyshabur,Iran 2018. One hundred and four menopausal women completed both the pre- and post-study measurements. The MBAT group demonstrated a significant decrease in symptoms of distress and significant improvements in key aspects of the health-related style of life (as measured by HPLPII questionnaire).

resultsThe MBAT interventions had a significant effect on improving lifestyle behaviors (p < 0.05). Among the dimensions of style of life, the highest mean score was for nutrition (35.14 ± 3.35), and the lowest score was achieved by the subdomains of physical activity (14.89 ± 3.55). The mean (standard deviation) scores of stress management, interpersonal relations and health responsibility were 21.54 ± 1.12, 26.00 ± 2.54 and 16.87 ± 4.10, respectively.

conclusionThis investigation of MBAT provides initial encouraging data that support a possible future role for the intervention as a psychosocial option for decrease in symptoms of distress menopausal women and improve lifestyle.
