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

The study was conducted to investigate death anxiety, psychological resilience, religious attitude levels, and related factors in cardiology patients with and without myocardial infarction (MI). This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted with 500 cardiology patients (250 with and 250 without MI) in Turkey. The Personal Information Form, Turkish Death Anxiety Scale, Resilience Scale for Adults, and Ok-Religious Attitude Scale were used in the collection of the data. No statistically significant differences were detected between death anxiety, psychological resilience, and religious attitude levels in the two patient groups. According to the regression analysis results, retired people showed significantly higher levels of psychological resilience compared to other occupational groups, regular users of medication compared to non-users and sometimes regular users, and those who did not do regular physical activity compared to those who did not do any physical activity (p < 0.05). Psychological resilience decreased as the duration of illness increased (B = - 0.360; p = 0.001). Death anxiety and religious attitude had no significant effect on psychological resilience (B = - 0.070; p = 0.132; B = - 0.240; p = 0.192, respectively). Programs must be developed to reduce death anxiety and increase the psychological resilience of all cardiology patients, and religious coping methods must be included in these programs.
