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

The study was conducted to determine the spiritual well-being levels of heart failure (HF) patients and to evaluate the relationship between spiritual well-being, symptom control, and medication adherence. A total of 224 HF patients treated in a hospital in Türkiye were included in this descriptive and correlational study. Data were collected using a patient information form, Spiritual Well-Being Scale, Adherence to Refills and Medications Scale (ARMS-7), and Symptom Status Questionnaire-Heart Failure. The mean score of HF patients on the Spiritual Well-being Scale was 127.74 ± 4.54. Considering that the score range of the Spiritual Well-Being Scale is 29-145, it was determined that the scale score of the patients was high. The mean score of the ARMS-7 was 26.27 ± 1.41, and the mean score of the Symptom Status Questionnaire-Heart Failure was 33.12 ± 11.96. A high level of spiritual well-being was associated with decreased the impact of disease-related symptoms and increase medication adherence in HF patients (p < 0.05). Additionally, regression analysis revealed that transcendence was associated with symptom burden (adjusted R
