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

introductionQuality of life (QoL) is a key measure of well-being that encompasses environmental, social, and spiritual dimensions, which are especially important to understand among women of reproductive age in rural settings. The objective of the study was to estimate the mean environmental, social, and spiritual QoL among women of reproductive age and to study the associated factors.

methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted in the outreach areas of a primary health center. Females aged 15-45 years living in the outreach areas for the last three months were included. The minimum sample size was calculated to be 110. Systematic random sampling was done. A pretested questionnaire based on the World Health Organization Quality of Life - 100 items (WHOQOL-100) was used to collect data.

resultThe mean (SD) age of 110 participants was 35.6 (7.6) years. The participants obtained a mean (SD) score of 11.6 (1.4), 12.5 (1.3), and 11.5 (3.6) for the social, environmental, and spiritual domains of QoL, respectively. In binomial regression, participants whose husbands had gone to colleges, did formal jobs, who lived in pucca houses, and owned agricultural lands had statistically significantly higher odds of having higher QoL in the social domain. Participants owning agricultural land had higher odds of having higher QoL in the environment domain. The presence of livestock was, however, found to be associated with the spiritual domain of QoL after adjusting for housing type. Even though 78 (70.91%) of women had anemia, there was no significant association between the presence of anemia and the social, environmental, and spiritual domains of QoL.

conclusionThis study shows that women's QoL depends on household conditions such as the presence of livestock. Single-focus programs may fall short; integrated approaches addressing these factors are needed for real improvement of the QoL of women.
