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
Objective: Exploring the factors that contribute to body image concerns among patients on hemodialysis is imperative. This cross-sectional study investigates whether self-care mediates the relationship between religious coping and body image concerns. Methods: A total of 398 patients completed the Littleton's Body Image Concern Inventory Questionnaire, Assessment of Self-care Behaviors with Arteriovenous Fistula, and Religious Coping Questionnaire between February and May 2023 at a major comprehensive hemodialysis center in Iran. Results: The mean age of patients on hemodialysis was 56.97 (SD = 13.48). The model explained 23.5% of the variation observed in body image concern ( Conclusion: The study contributes to the existing literature on the relationship between religious coping, body image concern, and self-care in various populations, such as overweight and obese individuals, high school students, and young females. The findings highlight that religious coping has directl relationship with body image concerns among patients on hemodialysis, while the mediating role of self-care was not supported. These results underscore the need for further research and targeted interventions that consider spiritual coping to improve body image outcomes in this population.
