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
backgroundAlthough spiritual health and social well-being can influence attitudes toward childbearing, little is known about their combined role among nurses. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the relationship between spiritual health and social well-being with attitudes toward childbearing among nurses working at Khoy University of Medical Sciences.
methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted using stratified random sampling and involved 320 employed nurses at the university. The data collection instrument comprised a questionnaire that included demographic characteristics, measures of spiritual health, social well-being, and attitudes toward childbearing. The relationships among the variables were analyzed using statistical tests, including correlation coefficients, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), and multiple linear regression.
resultsThe mean scores for spiritual health, social well-being, and attitude toward childbearing were 79.89 ± 15.93, 61.69 ± 9.74, and 57.00 ± 11.14, respectively. Spiritual health was significantly associated with attitude toward childbearing (β = 0.11, p = 0.007), and social well-being was also significantly associated with attitude toward childbearing (β = 0.10, p = 0.006). Among demographic variables, age (p = 0.004), education level (p = 0.006), economic status (p = 0.002), and number of children (p < 0.002) showed significant associations with attitude toward childbearing. The existential dimension of spiritual health (β = 0.22, p = 0.007) and the integration (β = 0.79, p < 0.001) and acceptance (β = 0.37, p = 0.046) dimensions of social well-being were the most influential factors.
conclusionsThis study highlights the significance of spiritual health and social well-being in shaping nurses' attitudes toward childbearing. Therefore, it is recommended that suitable educational and supportive programs be developed to enhance the spiritual and social health of nurses, which may aid in improving their decision-making regarding childbearing. By fostering these aspects, healthcare organizations can contribute to more positive attitudes and informed choices among nurses relating to parenting and family planning.
