Communication and sexual skills in marital functioning and satisfaction and reduced marital conflicts among Iranian couples: A systematic review.
Review in Journal of education and health promotion, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
This study aims to examine the effectiveness of communication and marital (sexual) skills in marital functioning and satisfaction and reduced marital conflicts among Iranian couples. The research literature has been collected from Magiran, SID, Noormags, ISC, and Civilica databases from 2006 to 2021. In the initial search, 104-related articles were extracted and after removing the duplicates, and screening the title and abstract, 34 articles were identified as relevant. After screening the full text of the articles, 20 studies were selected based on the inclusion criteria. According to the studies reviewed, the findings demonstrated that both interventions based on communication skills training and marital (sexual) skills training have improved marital satisfaction, sexual functioning and sexual satisfaction, and reduce marital conflicts. But the reviewed studies also had several blind spots and limitations were discussed in the article.
