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

introductionA large number of women experience sexual health problems during the postpartum period. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of sexual health education on sexual function and time of sexual intercourse resumption after childbirth in primiparous women in Southeast Iran. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis randomized clinical trial was conducted on 94 primiparous women randomly divided into two groups of intervention and control. The intervention group was subjected to three training sessions 3-5, 10-14, and 30-45 days after childbirth (first session lasting 20 min and other sessions 60 min). On the other hand, the participants in the control group only received the routine postpartum training. The Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) was completed by all participants before and 8 weeks after the intervention. Data were analyzed in SPSS software (version 22) using descriptive and inferential statistics, such as Chi-square test, independent

resultsThe mean score of FSFI in the intervention group was increased from 12.70 ± 6.166 before the onset of the intervention to 17.36 ± 5.407 after 8 weeks (

conclusionSexual health education for women in the postpartum period could improve their sexual function after childbirth. However, it is recommended to use sexual health education programs in women during the postpartum period to promote female sexual function.
