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

Background: The COVID-19 infection showed serious psychological influences on pregnant women's mental health that required psychological evaluation and intervention to overcome the negative consequences developed during the COVID-19 pandemic. The main goal of the present study was to evaluate depression, anxiety, and stress among pregnant women during the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in Jordan. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional correlation study was carried out among pregnant women in Jordan. From April to June 2022, data were collected from three hospitals in Jordan (two public and one private). The Arabic version of the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale 21 items (DASS-21) was used to collect the data. Data were collected from 355 participants and then analyzed. Results: During the COVID-19 pandemic, pregnant women experienced mild levels of stress (mean (SD) =14.43, 4.46) and anxiety (mean (SD) =9.06, 4.60), with no depression (mean (SD) = 8.12, 4.04). Jordanian women had lower stress levels (mean (SD) =13.07, 4.49) compared to non-Jordanian women (mean (SD) =15.15, 4.32) ( Conclusions: The study emphasizes the importance of integrating targeted antenatal support for pregnant women during the COVID-19 pandemic. Elevated stress levels emphasize the need for proactive measures to prevent maternal complications. Practical steps to address these challenges are crucial, promoting the well-being of expectant mothers and enhancing the resilience of maternal healthcare systems.
