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
Aim: To measure the relationships between dyadic coping, marital adjustment, and post-traumatic growth in patients with maintenance hemodialysis and their spouses. Background: Post-traumatic growth is common in patients facing maintenance hemodialysis. However, studies tend to focus on these patients as individuals rather than as part of a couple. Dyadic coping in a couple is important for their marital adjustment; however, little is known about how a couple's dyadic coping influences their marital adjustment and impacts their posttraumatic growth. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: A questionnaire survey was conducted among patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis and their spouses. Patients were recruited between December 2021 and October 2022 using convenience sampling from the blood purification centers of two first-class tertiary hospitals. A total of 230 couples (460 individuals) of patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis and their spouses were enrolled. A general condition questionnaire, the dyadic coping scale, and the Locke-Wallace marital adjustment scale were used for assessments and data entry and analysis were performed using EpiData 3.1, SPSS 25.0, and Mplus 8.4. Results: The dyadic coping of patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis was positively correlated with both marital adjustment and posttraumatic growth, as was the dyadic coping of their spouses. The marital adjustment of both patients and their spouses was found to partially mediate the association between dyadic coping and posttraumatic growth. Conclusion: Subject-mediated effects between the levels of dyadic coping, marital adjustment, and posttraumatic growth were established for both patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis and their spouses, and it was found that the marital adjustment in both showed varying degrees of mediation in the relationship between their dyadic coping and posttraumatic growth. Impact: The findings of the study suggest that attention should be given to promoting dyadic coping behaviors in patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis and their spouses. It is recommended that nurses offer both education and support to couples to promote dyadic coping.
