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

Postmenopausal women are more likely to experience sleep problems; therefore, this study aimed to examine the effect of spiritual reminiscence on their sleep quality. This clinical trial involved 40 postmenopausal women who were randomly selected based on inclusion criteria and divided into two groups of 20 each. The reminiscence protocol was conducted over six sessions. Participants completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and a demographic questionnaire before the intervention and immediately afterward. There were no significant differences in demographic variables between the two groups (P > 0.05). A statistically significant improvement in sleep quality was observed within the intervention group at both time points (P < 0.05). Additionally, significant differences in sleep quality were found between the intervention and control groups (P < 0.05). These findings suggest that spiritual reminiscence is an effective intervention for improving sleep quality among postmenopausal women.
