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
After a natural disaster, survivors may undergo psychological and emotional challenges. Some experts argue that such traumatic incidents can also foster posttraumatic growth (PTG). This qualitative descriptive study aimed to explore the progression of PTG and the factors influencing it among natural disaster survivors. Seventy individuals originating from disaster-affected regions in Indonesia between 2006 and 2022 participated in 7 focus groups exploring the impact of natural disasters, the perceived catalysts for change, and the PTG process. Thematic analysis revealed 3 distinct but interconnected stages of PTG: (1) Traumatic experience, characterised by fear, loss, and emotional turmoil; (2) Introspection, marked by reflection, spiritual awakening, and re-evaluation of personal values; and (3) Transformation, demonstrated through strengthened relationships, community solidarity, and proactive coping behaviours. These findings highlight the role of spirituality, social support, and cultural values in facilitating growth. PTG was shaped by individual resilience, community, and institutional support at micro, meso, and macro levels. These insights identify the need for culturally sensitive post-disaster interventions that promote recovery and meaningful growth.
