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

There is a significant rate of infertility and subsequent psychological problems among couples worldwide. Screening and treatment of the emotional burden of infertility and related Assistant Reproductive Therapies help to improve the quality of life of infertile people. Specific instruments which measure infertility-related status are more accurate. This study aimed to validate the SCREENIVF questionnaire to be used for the psychological screening and care of couples who seek infertility treatment. This quantitative psychometric study was run in infertility private and governmental clinics in XXX on 344 infertile women and men. They filled Persian-SCREENIVF. The Rasch-Andrich rating scale model was applied to investigate the psychometric quality of the survey. Additionally, structural equation modelling was run for model fit and construct validity as well. Moreover, multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was applied to examine the effects of demographic variables on the extracted constructs of the instrument in the population of the study. The results revealed five constructs in the questions with the corresponding items. Overall, the demographic variables have no contribution to these five constructs. Persian-SCREENIVF can be used for further studies about emotional disturbances in infertility problems.
