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

Background Most students have essential perspectives on parenthood, which may vary based on education or cultural background. Negative perspectives reflect a serious gap in reproductive health education among future parents and may lead to delaying parenthood, increasing the risk of infertility or fetal loss. Aim This study aimed to assess students' perspectives on fertility-related issues and motherhood across multi-country backgrounds. Methods A descriptive, cross-sectional design was conducted from Spring 2021 to Spring 2022 among voluntary participants focused on the fertility and motherhood perspectives of health sciences colleges in six participating countries (Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and Turkey). The responses were collected conveniently by a self-administered questionnaire consisting of 31 items in 5 sections, adapted from a published Swedish study after testing for validity and reliability and analyzed using SPSS version 22 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, US) including 1,371 students from an online hosting site. Results Almost three-quarters of students have poor perspectives toward fertility concepts. There are significant relationships between students' characteristics (independent variables) and their perspectives (dependent variable) toward motherhood. A high positive correlation between students' decision to have children's factors, their perspectives regarding cryopreservation, and motherhood with (
