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
Pseudo-pregnancy is an uncommon psychiatric presentation, often having a complex interplay of psycho-social factors making it difficult to manage. It is common to present in the reproductive age range, rarely in postmenopausal women. We are reporting a rare presentation of a 48-year post-menopausal widowed HIV-positive female with no live issues having two years of secondary amenorrhea complaining to have documented weight gain and experience of perceiving fetal movements for the past 5 months. However, she persistently insisted on antenatal care despite repeated reports of ultra-sonographic pelvis imaging and gynecological examination pointed toward menopausal changes and the absence of any live issue. This case report emphasizes the clinical presentation and management strategies for patients with pseudocyesis, a peculiar and rare psychiatric manifestation.
