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
Implicit Theories of the Marital Institution (ITMI) represent beliefs about whether marriage is a fixed or malleable relationship form. ITMI can influence moderate associations between related constructs such as marital beliefs and mate preferences. The current study tested for associations among certain beliefs about marriage (i.e., that roles should be gendered, that a marriage requires substantial effort), preferred characteristics in long-term mates (i.e., the KASER model of mate preferences), and ITMI. A sample of 588 young adults in Iran completed an anonymous survey focused on the constructs of interest. Gender was accounted for in all analyses given the relevance of gender in predominant mate-selection scholarship. Results indicated that the Fixed and Malleable ITMI were unexpectedly positively correlated. Regression analyses identified several interaction effects between marital beliefs and the preferred mate characteristics and a few marital beliefs by ITMI by gender interactions. Findings are explored in light of cultural context and implications for future research.
