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.

methodsThis semiexperimental study was conducted on 60 patient candidates (30 controls, 30 patients) for cardiac surgery. Data were collected using Beck's anxiety questionnaire, image of God, and Wiener reconstruction scale.

After collecting the data, they were entered into SPSS18 and analyzed with the help of descriptive and analytical statistics.
resultsData analysis showed that perception of God has a positive correlation with locus of control (r = 723 **), but locus of control showed a negative correlation with emotion score (r = -597**). The results also indicated that the mean scores of anxieties in the case group in the post-test and follow-up phases were significantly different from before the intervention compared to the control group (
