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
backgroundDrought is one of the most destructive and complex natural hazards, with direct and indirect effects, especially economic effects, on society and households. It affects the well-being and life satisfaction of households. It is important to understand the effects of drought at the micro level, such as households, by examining different attitudes, perceptions, and experiences of drought and its impacts.
methodsThis research aims to investigate the understanding and experiences of the residents of the poor areas of Kerman city regarding drought and its consequences on their well-being and life satisfaction. To that end, the descriptive phenomenology qualitative method was used, selected samples purposefully, and conducted semi-structured and in-depth interviews with households in August and September 2022.

resultsFrom the analysis of the results of the interviews with the households, it was shown that the drought, with its impact on the economic, social, family, health, and environmental dimensions, has been identified as five main themes, leading to a decrease in the well-being and life satisfaction of the households.
conclusionThe drought has caused the migration of families from the cities and villages around Kerman province to the outskirts of the city. Subsequently, with the increase in the population in the outskirts of the city, the problem of waterlessness has increased. As a result, the welfare and life satisfaction of households have decreased.
