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

The objective of this paper is to detail the process of psychological adaptation for a woman navigating the world after a diagnosis of age-related infertility. Infertility is a medical condition, but it occurs within a social and cultural context, thereby creating social and psychological dimensions. Discrepancies between a woman's fertility ideals and her reality may be related to both personal preferences and contributing social factors. The discussion will be based on longitudinally collected interview data. Drawing on the Dialogical Self Theory, the paper will focus on intra-psychological dynamics (dialogues) and will analyze the adaptation process in terms of I-positions. Based on idiographic analyses the conclusion is that adaptation takes place by taking subjective personal control over the uncertainty of infertility. By integrating new I-position into intra-personal phenomena, the core "I" will be united with new qualities and is seen as an authentic elaboration resulting from the formation of personal, subjective meaning in a uniquely personal developmental trajectory.
