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

Religiosity is a desirable coping strategy for many people who are experiencing negative life events, such as infirmities and stressors. However, no studies have examined the beneficial effects of religiosity on resilience and mental health when dealing with chronic hepatitis. This study aimed to investigate the association among religiosity, stress, anxiety, depression, resilience, and subjective well-being (SWB) in hepatitis patients. A total of 136 participants were evaluated in Clinics Hospital of the Federal University of Triângulo Mineiro, Brazil. Patients with high and low intrinsic religiosity (HIR and LIR) were compared across outcomes of mental health, SWB, and resilience. Most patients (52.9%) were males with a mean (SD) age of 47 (13) years. The results of the multiple linear regression analysis revealed that intrinsic religiosity was associated with stress, depression, resilience, and SWB. Our findings demonstrate that hepatitis patients with HIR have greater resilience, a higher level of SWB, and better mental health, thus the need to assess religiosity/spirituality as well as the need for health professionals to consider these constructs as coping strategies for the disease.
