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
Background: Marital discord is associated with adverse psychosocial outcomes not just for the couple but also for their children. Identifying psychosocial risk factors can help devise targeted interventions. This study aimed to determine the psychosocial correlates of marital discord through a cross-sectional design. Methods: Fifty married couples presenting with marital discord were recruited through purposive sampling. Self-reported data were gathered using standardized questionnaires on marital adjustment, intimacy, psychological distress, alcohol abuse, and internet addiction. Statistical analysis was conducted to examine correlations between these psychosocial variables and the degree of marital discord. Results: A higher number of females (90%) compared to men (72%) had poor marital adjustment. Couples valued emotional and recreational intimacy the most. There was a negative correlation between marital adjustment with psychological distress and alcohol abuse. Conclusion: The findings that highlight intimacy in all domains is essential for marital satisfaction, and a significantly positive correlation exists between the experience of intimacy and marital satisfaction. Clinicians need to screen for these psychosocial variables and address them through targeted marital counseling programs focusing on improving intimacy, addressing psychological distress, and dealing with alcohol abuse among discordant couples.
