Article in Psychiatry investigation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveInfertility, the inability to achieve pregnancy within a year despite normal attempts to conceive without contraception, causes psychosocial burden for individuals and couples. This review summarized the interrelationship between infertility and psychological stress and suggested various forms of psychological intervention for infertility.
methodsThe PubMed, Google Scholar, and Korean Studies Information Service System databases were searched for English- and Korean-language articles published from 1990 to 2024.
resultsInfertility leads to emotional distress from diagnosis to treatment. Also, psychological stress affects the trajectory of infertility. This distress may cause psychiatric illnesses, negatively affecting pregnancy. Psychotherapies, psychopharmacotherapies, and biological treatments can be used for the management of psychiatric illnesses in infertile patients. Digital therapeutics also have the potential to be a competitive treatment option.
conclusionRegular assessment and management of psychological stress in infertile couples are essential during the course of infertility treatment. Psychological intervention of infertile patients should be implemented according to a personalized plan that completely reflects the individual clinical characteristics.
