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

backgroundAnxiety disorders are the most common mental disorders, yet only about a quarter of affected individuals receive treatment. This necessitates the development of high-technology care approaches, including virtual reality.

aimTo analyze mental imagery associated with psychological safety and inner comfort to optimize the selection of relaxation content for virtual reality.

methodsParticipants completed standardized questionnaires: the Social Readjustment Rating Scale, the Well-being, Activity, Mood questionnaire, and a Safe Place interview. Statistical analysis included significance testing and one-way analysis of variance. Descriptions of safe places underwent qualitative analysis to identify the frequency of key semantic categories.

resultsA total of 192 respondents (18-82 years) were stratified into three age groups: 18-39 (

conclusionThe highest distress levels were observed in individuals under 40, indicating a greater need for relaxation interventions. Across all age groups, images of water associated with a safe place, while participants aged 50 years and older more frequently preferred personal spaces. The identified semantic categories can form a basis for thematic catalogs in virtual relaxation libraries.
