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
objectivesTo explore the effect and pathway of abortion stigma on depressive symptoms before terminating the pregnancy in pregnant women with fetal anomaly.
methodsBased on literature review, a self-made general demographic information questionnaire, the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, the Individual Level Abortion Stigma Scale, the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II, the Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire-Fusion, the Responses to Stress Questionnaire and the Perceived Social Support Scale were used to investigate pregnant women with fetal anomaly before abortion in tertiary general hospitals and specialist maternity hospitals in Changsha, to develop a hypothesis model of the factors influencing depressive symptoms before terminating the pregnancy. The hypothesis model was verified by applying structural equation modelling analysis.
resultsThe structural equation model showed that the stigma directly or indirectly influenced depressive symptoms before terminating the pregnancy via psychological flexibility, social support and avoidance coping. The total effect value was 0.55 (
conclusionsAbortion stigma has large positive effect on the depressive symptoms before terminating the pregnancy in pregnant women with fetal anomaly. Among direct and indirect effect, the indirect effect is major. Effective measures to reduce the stigma, increase psychological flexibility, improve social support and coping style will have an important influence on the prevention and reduction of depressive symptoms before terminating the pregnancy.
