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
This randomized controlled trial was conducted to determine the effect of spiritual support provided through the Virgin Mary's Hand Plant and Surah Maryam during labor on labour worries, labor pain, and maternal satisfaction. The study is conducted with 120 primiparous in a province in eastern Türkiye. Advanced analysis showed that there was no statistically significant difference in pain levels between women who listened to Surah Maryam and those who used the Virgin Mary's Hand Plant; however, both groups showed statistically significant differences compared to the control group (F = 192.368, p = 0.00). Regarding labour worries and satisfaction, no significant differences were found between the experimental groups, yet both were statistically significant compared to the control group (F = 445.976, p = 0.00; F = 224.775, p = 0.00). It is recommended that women be allowed to use spiritual practices and non-pharmacological methods of their own choice during labor, thereby contributing to a more positive experience of labor pain, reducing labour worries, and enhancing birth satisfaction.
