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

In this cross-sectional study we investigated whether attachment orientation moderated the associations between sexual excitation and inhibition and sexual desire and arousal. A convenience sample of 358 participants (242 women and 116 men; mean age: 37.6 ± 12.0) completed online questionnaires including the Sexual Inhibition/Sexual Excitation Scales-Short Form, the Experiences in Close Relationships scale, the Female Sexual Function Index (women only), and the International Index of Erectile Function (men only). Associations were tested using multiple linear regression analysis. Sexual excitation/inhibition (sexual desire: B
