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
Objective: Pregnancy is one of the most important, influential, and critical periods in the lives of women and families. Women's attitudes toward pregnancy and motherhood can greatly impact how they face challenges during pregnancy. Many transformations occur in women's sexual lives during this period. Previous studies have reported conflicting results regarding sexual desire during pregnancy and various factors that affect women's attitudes toward motherhood. Therefore, we decided to investigate the relationship between these factors. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional study with descriptive and analytical objectives was conducted on 124 pregnant women referred to comprehensive health service centers. The research instruments included the Socio-Demographic and Obstetric Questionnaire, the Scale of Attitudes toward Motherhood and Pregnancy, and the Hulbert Sexual Desire Questionnaire. Results: This study revealed a direct and significant relationship between the attitude toward the role of the mother and sexual desire in pregnant women (M1: 17.4±57.06, M2: 5.31±32.5, r=0.473; p<0.001). Also, the results showed that the sexual desire of pregnant women is average (32.5±5.31), and the attitude toward the role of the mother is low (57.06±17.4). Conclusion: The results of the study showed that any improvement in attitudes toward motherhood and pregnancy enhanced sexual desire. It seems necessary to screen women and men in terms of attitudes toward motherhood and sexual health and factors affecting it during pregnancy.
