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
The Orgasm Rating Scale (ORS) evaluates the subjective orgasm experience (SOE), both in the context of sexual relationships and solitary masturbation. It has been validated in Spain, but to examine the construct in different cultures, this study aimed to analyze its psychometric properties in the Colombian population. A total of 1 097 adults aged 18 to 62 years (mean 27.92 ± 8.54) responded to the ORS and the Arizona Sexual Experience Scale in the contexts of sexual relationships and solitary masturbation separately, during May and October 2024. The four-dimensional structure of the Spanish version is confirmed for both contexts by confirmatory factor analysis. It showed adequate reliability, with McDonald's omega values between 0.74 and 0.94. The ORS scores were significantly correlated between both contexts (r = 0.174 to 0.682), indicating the reciprocity of orgasm between the two domains. In addition, they were significantly associated with measures of sexual functioning (r = -0.097 to -0.641). Finally, through Fisher's ANOVA Bayesian, the results showed that Affective, Sensory and Rewards subscales discriminated between persons with and without orgasm difficulties in sexual relationships and solitary masturbation, but not Intimacy subscale. In conclusion, the ORS has adequate psychometric guarantees in the Colombian population to evaluate the subjective orgasm experience in the contexts of sexual relationships and solitary masturbation from a multidimensional perspective, showing itself as a valuable tool in the field of sexual and couple therapy.
