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
Introduction: This cross-sectional study examined the associations of internet and social media use and perceived media influence with body image and self-perceived attractiveness in a partner relationship among women in the menopausal transition, while accounting for the use of aesthetic medicine procedures and selected sociodemographic factors. Methods: The study included 603 women in the menopausal transition. Body image was assessed with the Body Esteem Scale (BES), and self-perceived attractiveness in a partner relationship was assessed with the Scale of Assessment of Self-Attractiveness in a Relationship (SAAR) in partnered women ( Results: Perceived media influence on body perception was more consistently associated with BES dimensions than internet and social media use. It was negatively associated with Weight Concern (β = 0.098, Discussion: In women in the menopausal transition, body image was associated with both media-related and non-media factors. Perceived media influence was a more consistent correlate of body image than internet and social media use, supporting the distinction between media exposure and subjective media impact in research and care focused on body image in midlife women.
