Article in Revista brasileira de enfermagem, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesto analyze the effects of auriculotherapy on the mental health of individuals with anxiety in Primary Healthcare.
methodsa sequential explanatory mixed-methods study was conducted with 60 patients from a health unit in Uberaba, MG. Quantitative data were obtained using the DASS-21 and WHOQOL-Bref questionnaires. Qualitative data were collected from 17 semi-structured interviews and analyzed through thematic content analysis. Statistical analysis included the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, paired t-test, and multivariate regression models.
resultsafter ten sessions of auriculotherapy, anxiety levels decreased, with most participants (86.7%) reaching normal levels. Additionally, 61.7% rated their quality of life as good, and 46.7% reported satisfaction with their health. Six thematic categories emerged. Auriculotherapy reduced DASS-21 scores and WHOQOL-Bref domain scores, even after adjusted analysis.
