Article in General psychiatry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05102253 (Transcutaneous Electrical Acupoint Stimulation), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
Background: Women victims of domestic violence often present with psychiatric disorders and may benefit from nonpharmacological interventions. Acupoint stimulation therapy may be an effective approach. Aims: To examine whether a combination of electroacupuncture (EA) and transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) can alleviate depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and insomnia in women victims of domestic violence. Methods: An assessor-blinded randomised controlled trial was conducted in Hong Kong, China, with 110 Chinese women with major depressive disorder who had experienced domestic violence and were randomly assigned to care as usual (CAU) alone or combined with EA + TEAS ( Results: Of the 110 participants ( Conclusions: The addition of EA + TEAS produced substantially greater improvements in depression and other psychiatric symptoms. EA + TEAS may serve as an effective intervention for women victims of domestic violence. Trial Registration: This trial was registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05102253).
