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
Background: Addiction is one of the most common psychiatric disorders and is closely related to depression and anxiety disorders. The presence of these disorders makes the process of addiction treatment difficult. Binaural beats are the representation and perception of a stimulus that does not exist in the outside world but is the brain's mental perception error of a virtual third sound, that is, the slight frequency difference between the two sounds. Methods: The present study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of brain synchronization using binaural beats in the theta band on depression and anxiety in opioid-dependent patients in Tabriz city. The method of conducting quasi-experimental research with two test and control groups is pretest-posttest. The statistical population was all opioid-dependent people referring to outpatient clinics in Tabriz city. The research sample included 30 opioid-dependent people who completed the informed consent form and Beck's depression and anxiety questionnaire. The subjects were randomly assigned to two experimental and control groups and received eight sessions of 7.5 Hz binaural beats, 20 minutes each, by headphones. The questionnaires above were administered again after the completion of the treatment sessions. Findings: This study analyzed the obtained data by ANCOVA using SPSS20 software. The reasult showed binaural beat in Tetha band (7.5 Hz) have a significant effect on depression and anxiety ( Conclusion: According to the results, the binaural beats in the theta band reduce anxiety and depression in opioid-dependent patients.
