Exploring eco-anxiety among women amid climate-induced heat: a comprehensive review.
Review in Frontiers in psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Eco-anxiety, the chronic fear of environmental doom, has become more frequent as climate change accelerates, particularly among disadvantaged population. This comprehensive review explores the relationship between eco-anxiety and gender differences, with a particular emphasis on women who experience stress and summarises the existing literature on the psychological and emotional responses to heat-related climate stressors. The current review critically examined a total of 21 articles and synthesised the scholarly literature on eco-anxiety, then it was reported using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA-ScR). Women often face socioeconomic and physiological challenges, leading them to be more vulnerable to the effects of climate change, such as extreme heat events. This review was mainly focussed on the climate induced pathways to psychological consequences and gender differences with respect to eco-anxiety which strives to reveal targeted support systems and promote more inclusive climate resilience planning by comprehending the gender-specific dimensions of eco-anxiety. We observed that most of the evidence were from Western countries, hence global research is essential. According to our review, further study is needed to define eco-anxiety with respect to climate induced heat.
