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

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the cognitive-behavioral therapy program (CBT) on the sexual function and sexual self-efficacy of 100 women after childbearing. Methods: In this experimental pretest-posttest and control group design study, women who passed eight weeks of their delivery and were referred to three health centers, in Shadegan, Iran, from January to April 2019 registered using the simple sampling method and randomly allocated into two groups of case and control. For the CBT group eight weeks of counseling (one session/week), and for the control group, routine educations were provided by health care providers. Both groups filled out the female sexual function index and sexual self-efficacy questionnaires before intervention and eight weeks after the last session. Results: There was no significant difference between the CBT and control groups before the intervention in terms of sexual function and sexual self-efficacy, but eight weeks after the intervention, there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.001). Conclusion: Proper implementation of counseling based on the CBT model improved sexual function and self-efficacy of nulliparous women after childbirth.
