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
introductionWomen with substance use disorders (SUD) face distinct gender-based challenges in accessing and engaging with treatment, including stigma, caregiving responsibilities and inadequate institutional support. Despite increasing rates of substance use among women, their treatment needs remain under-addressed in both clinical practice and research.
aimThis study explored the lived experiences of women with SUD regarding their motivations and barriers to seeking and maintaining treatment in a psychiatric inpatient setting in Türkiye.
methodA descriptive phenomenological approach was used. In-depth, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 27 women diagnosed with SUD who had completed detoxification and were receiving inpatient care. Data were analysed using Colaizzi's method, supported by MAXQDA 24.0.
resultsAs a result of the research, two main themes emerged: 'Motivations and Barriers'. Also, four sub-themes: (1) Motivation to initiate treatment, (2) Motivation to maintain treatment, (3) Barriers to initiating treatment and (4) Barriers to maintaining treatment, and 17 codes were determined. DISCUSSION: Motivations and barriers to treatment among women with SUD reflect an interplay of psychological, social and structural factors. Addressing these multidimensional needs is essential for sustained recovery.
