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

objectiveThis study aimed to examine the role of type D personality traits in predicting depression and anxiety symptoms in women in the postpartum period.

methodThe study is correlational and case-controlled. The sample consisted of 319 women in the postpartum period living in a province in western Türkiye. Type D Personality Scale (DS14), Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS), and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) were administered. Data were collected via Google Forms between January and February 2022.

results62.4% of women in the postpartum period had type D personality characteristics. Postpartum depression and state-trait anxiety levels of women with type D personality were significantly higher (p<0.05). Additionally, the negative affect subscale of the Type D Personality Scale was the most significantly associated variable with postpartum depression (β=0.548, p<0.05) and state-trait anxiety (β=0.709, p<0.05).

conclusionPersonality traits can play an important role in the emergence of depression, anxiety and stress. Improving the coping and interpersonal skills of women with type D personality traits can help them to manage pregnancy, birth and motherhood related mental problems.
