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 Fertility Problem Inventory (FPI) is widely used to assess infertility-related stress. Despite its international application, a validated Spanish version is not yet available. Our aim is to assess the psychometric properties, reliability and construct validity evidence of the scores of the FPI Spanish version in women undergoing fertility treatments. 199 Women (mean age = 35.14, SD = 3.86, range 23-45) provided sociodemographic, obstetrics and psychological data. Confirmatory Factor Analyses tested six models (unidimensional and multidimensional) based on the original FPI and previous FPI validations, identifying the optimal structure. Factor loadings, reliability and correlations with anxiety, depression and life satisfaction were also conducted. The original five-factor structure proposed by the original authors showed the best fit. However, items 24, 25 and 28 showed very low factor loadings. The final model with 43 items, removing those with poor factor loading, demonstrated an acceptable model fit (χ
