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: Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a distressing complication of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) that can amplify emotional and psychological burden. Fertility-related stress is influenced by individual psychological resources and the quality of marital communication. However, limited research has examined these associations in patients hospitalized with OHSS. Objective: To examine the relationship between fertility stress, conjugal communication patterns, and psychological capital in hospitalized patients with OHSS following IVF-ET. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 185 women admitted to the fertility ward of a tertiary hospital in China between June 2022 and December 2023. Participants completed the Fertility Problem Inventory (FPI), the Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ), and the Chinese version of the Christensen Marital Communication Model Questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and multiple linear regression analyses were conducted using SPSS version 26.0. Outcomes included the level of fertility stress and its associations with conjugal communication, psychological capital, and relevant demographic and clinical predictors. Results: Participants reported elevated fertility stress (mean ± SD: 155.08 ± 30.58), suboptimal conjugal communication (60.15 ± 24.06), and moderate psychological capital (120.05 ± 18.92). Fertility stress was positively correlated with total avoidance communication (r = 0.373, Conclusion: Maladaptive conjugal communication and diminished psychological capital are significantly associated with heightened fertility stress in OHSS patients undergoing IVF-ET. Integrating psychosocial support to enhance marital communication and psychological resilience may help alleviate stress and improve patient outcomes.
