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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to determine the predictors of body awareness in pregnant women.

methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted with 149 women in their second and third trimesters of pregnancy in Turkey between August and November 2024. Participants completed a sociodemographic form, the Body Awareness Questionnaire, and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the effects of age, number of pregnancies, gestational weeks, and physical activity levels on body awareness.

resultsParticipants had a mean age of 27.69±4.82 years, a mean body mass index of 26.59±3.49, and a mean gestational week of 31.97±6.95. The average body awareness score was 92.52±15.48, and the mean physical activity level was 1,084.56±671.93 metabolic equivalent of task-minutes/week. Regression analysis showed that gestational weeks significantly predicted body awareness (β=-0.327, p<0.001), with decreased body awareness observed as the pregnancy progressed. No significant associations were found with age, number of pregnancies, or physical activity levels (p>0.05).

conclusionGestational weeks negatively influence body awareness in pregnant women. These findings highlight the importance of developing interventions to enhance body awareness during advanced stages of pregnancy.
