Beyond hemodynamics: environmental and psychosocial predictors of anxiety in emergency patients with gastrointestinal bleeding.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07781943 (The Effect of Diaphragmatic Breathing Exercises Performed Prior to Diagnostic Gastroscopy on Anxiety, Fear, and Vital Signs in Adult Patients), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Purpose: We investigated the state anxiety level and the factors affecting it in patients with Gastrointestinal Bleeding (GIB) who were followed up in the Emergency Department (ED). Material-methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted with 107 patients (62 females, 45 males) who were admitted to the ED of Balikesir University Faculty of Medicine Hospital between 01.02.2025-10.05.2025 and diagnosed with GIB using the complete census method. In the study in which a correlational screening model was used, data were collected with the Demographic Information Form and the State Anxiety Inventory. Descriptive statistics, independent samples Results: When the results of the study are examined, it is seen that the state anxiety levels of the patients followed up in the ED with the diagnosis of GIB are at a moderate level; there is no significant difference between state anxiety and gender, occupation, marital status and previous bleeding; and there are significant differences between state anxiety and being disturbed by the monitor machine sound in the environment of ED, being disturbed by the environment, being disturbed by the stretcher, being disturbed by the crowd, being disturbed by seeing other patients and being disturbed by not having physical communication with the outside. No statistically significant difference was found according to educational status. Conclusions: It can be said that reducing the noise and chaos in the ED and providing a calmer and more supportive environment for the patient can reduce the state anxiety levels of patients with GIB and similar acute conditions and thus positively affect both their psychological wellbeing and medical outcomes. These findings may inform the development of targeted interventions-such as environmental modifications, structured patient education, or supportive practices-that can be implemented in the ED to enhance patient care.
