1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Prior studies have documented fertility concerns among adolescents and young adult women, but reasons for these perceptions have not been fully elucidated. We explored the origins and dimensions of fertility concerns in a sample of U.S. young adults assigned female sex at birth. Methods: We conducted focus groups with participants aged 18-25 years recruited from reproductive health centers in Minnesota, United States, from 2021 to 2022. Eligible participants were assigned female sex at birth, had recent penile-vaginal sex, had never been pregnant, were not attempting pregnancy, and self-identified as having ever been worried about their fertility. Transcripts were analyzed qualitatively for themes regarding: (1) reasons for fertility concerns and (2) participants' perceptions of their current fertility. Results: Participants ( Conclusions: Young people with fertility concerns cite myriad reasons and do not necessarily believe they are
