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

Aim: The aim of this study was to examine regret over the timing of the childbearing decision and reasons for its delay. Design: A cross-sectional study. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 219 women and 169 men referred to fertility facilities in Japan from July-December 2018. Participants completed a questionnaire on the reasons for their delay in childbearing decision and the degree of regret regarding their decision. Multiple linear regression was used to analyse the association between degree of regret and the reasons for the delay. Results: The top three reasons for the delay in childbearing decision in women were "Establishing the relationship," "Health problems," and "Financial security." The top three reasons in men were "Establishing the relationship," "Financial security," and "Lack of fertility knowledge." Multiple linear regression showed that lack of fertility knowledge was associated with regret over the timing of childbearing decisions in women and men.
