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.

In addition, health anxiety was negatively associated with total score of the QOL (r = - 0.18, P = 0.003). Moreover, this relationship was significant for physical health (r = -0.14, P = 0.01), psychological health (r = -0.30, P <0.001), social relationships (r = -0.31, P <0.001), and social environment(r = -0.21, P <0.001).
