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
objectivesto analyze the relationship between anxiety and depressive symptoms and social support in patients with atrial fibrillation.
methodsa descriptive, cross-sectional, correlational study was conducted with 102 participants. Data were collected using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and the Medical Outcomes Study Social Support Survey. Descriptive statistics and Spearman's rank correlation were used to analyze the data.
resultsthe median anxiety score was 8.0 (interquartile range [IQR] 7-11), and the median depression score was 6.0 (IQR 3-10). Anxiety symptoms were identified in 60.8% of participants and depressive symptoms in 38.2%. Inverse correlations were observed between depressive symptoms and affectionate support, emotional/informational support, and positive social interaction. No associations were found between anxiety symptoms and social support.
conclusionshigher levels of affectionate and emotional/informational support and positive social interaction were associated with lower depressive symptom scores.
