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

Rural green spaces (RGS) are associated with enhanced psychological wellbeing (PWB), yet South Asian Muslim women face disparities in access, engagement, and health outcomes. This study investigates the relationships between perceived access to RGS, rate of engagement, and PWB among 600 self-identified South Asian Muslim women in England. Using structural equation modelling, we examine the moderating roles of identity visibility and active engagement. Findings indicate that perceived access is positively associated with PWB and is especially important for individuals with higher identity visibility and lower levels of active engagement. While perceived access is significantly associated with engagement with RGS, rate of engagement does not statistically predict PWB. These results offer a nuanced perspective on the intersection of identity, environment, and mental health, and have important implications for inclusive policy and nature interventions. This research contributes to and extends existing frameworks on access and wellbeing by foregrounding the experiences of a marginalised population.
