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

This study aimed to systematically review published articles on sexual health promotion interventions in postmenopausal Iranian women. Five databases including PubMed, ProQuest, Web of Science, Science Direct, and Google Scholar, as well as three Iranian databases, including SID, IranDoc, and Magiran, were searched without a time limit for sexual health promotion interventions in Iranian postmenopausal women. The risk of bias was assessed using the Jadad scale. In total, 48 articles met our inclusion criteria and provided data for this review. The measured outcomes were different aspects of sexual function. Outcomes were measured using a specific questionnaire related to sexual function and its areas. The results obtained from the tools used have led to the classification of the results based on the type of interventions used to improve the sexual health of postmenopausal women. The main groups were drug interventions (chemical and herbal) and non-drug interventions (psychological and educational). Surveys showed that most interventions performed on sexual health in Iranian postmenopausal women were medicinal (herbal) interventions. Numerous studies obtained a good quality score. The results of this study can be used to improve the sexual health of postmenopausal women.
