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

backgroundAlthough pregnancy is a part of the natural life cycle for every woman, the idea that pregnancy is a happy period and a state of emotional well-being has now been abandoned. This process causes intense changes to woman bodies, minds and society. The study aims to determine how psychological well-being mediates the relationship between psychological health and psychological resilience in expectant women.

methodsThe study was conducted descriptively with 130 expectant women who attended the obstetrics outpatient clinic at a university hospital between 15.07.2021 and 30.12.2021.

resultsA moderately significant association between psychosocial health and psychological well-being during pregnancy (p < 0.01), and a moderately strong association between psychological well-being and psychological resilience were found (p < 0.01). Psychosocial health and psychological resilience during pregnancy were also significantly associated at a low-level (p<0.1). The result of the Structural Equation Modeling Mediation analysis reveals that psychological well-being serves as a crucial mediating role in the relationship between psychosocial health and psychological resilience during pregnancy. (β = 0.08, t = 0.61). The model fit indices were determined as X2=237.12.

conclusionsThe study found that expectant women have an important role in strengthening the association between psychosocial health and psychological well-being through their mediating role of psychological well-being.
