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.

The minimum score of women was 5 from Pittsburgh questionnaire. Eight sessions weekly (120-min/session) MBSR group training was conducted in the intervention group and menopausal health in the control group for two months. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Questionnaire was used as a data collection tool. Descriptive statistics and nonparametric tests were utilized to analyze the data using SPSS software (version 25). The significance level < 0.05 was considered.
resultsSocio-demographic characteristics of participants were no statistically significant difference between the study groups before the intervention. The results showed that mean of overall quality of sleep score was before the intervention 10.21 ± 3.03, after the intervention 4.7 ± 2.45, and one month after the intervention 4.69 ± 2.4 respectively in intervention group (P < 0.001). While there was no significant change in the mean overall quality of sleep quality in the control group.
