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: Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a major public health and social concern affecting women globally. In many societies, including Iran, its high prevalence and serious consequences highlight the need for a deeper understanding. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of intimate partner violence and examine its contributing factors among married women in Tehran, Iran. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive-analytical research was conducted from February 2020 to June 2020. A total of 471 individuals were chosen through the convenience sample approach. The study's questionnaire comprised 2 sections: demographic information and Haj-Yahia's (1999) Violence Against Women Scale. We used the Shapiro-Wilk, t test, Mann-Whitney U-test, or χ2 test, and multiple linear regression analysis. All statistical analyses were performed by STATA Version 14 software. Results: The mean age was 32.7 ± 7.96 years. The prevalence of intimate partner violence was 92.14%. Additionally, the prevalence of psychological, physical, sexual, and economic violence was 91.08%, 46.71%, 41.4%, and 29.3%, respectively. The husband's education level (β = 0.751, 95% CI: 0.115 to 1.387, Conclusion: Given the high prevalence of intimate partner violence, especially during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, and its association with factors such as education, addiction, and marriage characteristics, these findings highlight the urgent need for increased awareness and policy interventions. The broad definition of IPV used in this study, where any "once or more" response was classified as positive, may have inflated the prevalence. Additionally, due to the pandemic's constraints, the online sampling method likely introduced bias by targeting individuals more likely to report IPV. These factors should be considered when interpreting the findings, and further research with stricter definitions and diverse sampling methods is recommended. Developing screening programs for the early identification of IPV is essential.
