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
Women constitute nearly half of the world's migrants and forcibly displaced population, facing disproportionate levels of persecution, violence and human rights violations. The aim was to identify and critically analyse the nature of psychological interventions and their components for addressing mental health concerns of women migrants and asylum seekers. This review included pre-post feasibility/pilot studies, community and individual case studies, and Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs]) elucidating interventions addressing mental health concerns of women migrants and asylum seekers above the age of 18 years, published in peer-reviewed journals between January 2003 and November 2023 in English. Systematic search was conducted across four databases by two reviewers and predefined extraction template was used for charting data. Twenty-four studies were selected out of 1568 screened studies. Interventions were supportive and treatment-oriented to help women who migrated due to violence and political instability. They were delivered by mental health professionals in a group or individual format, lasting for eight-to-twelve sessions. Theoretical models used were cognitive-behavioural, arts-based, trauma-focused, family-focused, and strengths-based perspectives. Major components of interventions included psychoeducation, coping strategies, working with cognitions, emotions, and exposure. These interventions were culturally-adapted with strategies specifically designed for women refugees and asylum-seekers. Critical gaps were identified and recommendations include more representation of lived experiences of migrant women, highlighting process of psychotherapy, and thrust for therapist well-being. This review identifies gaps in literature including limited large-scale studies, geographic diversity, and qualitative process data. The findings of the review recommend culturally adapted, resilience-focused interventions with a long-term follow-up.
