Health promotion behaviours of pregnant women and spiritual well-being: Mediatory role of pregnancy stress, anxiety and coping ways.
Article in Nursing open, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
aimLittle is known about the link between spiritual well-being and health promotion behaviours in pregnant women. The study aimed to explore the direct and indirect effects of spirituality on health promotion behaviours with the mediatory roles of pregnancy stress, anxiety and coping ways.
designCross-sectional.
methodsTwo hundred women aged above 18 years completed Spiritual Well-Being scale (SWBS), State-Anxiety Inventory (SAI), Promoting Lifestyle Profile (HPLP), Prenatal Coping Inventory (Nu-PCI) and Revised Prenatal Distress Questionnaire (NuPDQ).
resultsSpirituality directly and negatively affected the state anxiety (β = -.41; p < .001) and NuPDQ (β = -.36; p < .001). Health promotion behaviours were negatively related to state anxiety (β = -.36; p < .001) and positively to planning-preparation coping (β = .23; p = .001). Spirituality had a significant indirect effect on health promotion behaviours (β = .33; p < .001), mediated through its association with state anxiety and planning-preparation coping. Thus, health professionals are proposed to consult pregnant women on the benefits of spirituality for improving healthy behaviours.
