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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate affective temperament, emotion regulation, and anxiety-depression symptoms in women with idiopathic granulomatous mastitis, and to determine whether these psychological factors predict clinically relevant outcomes.
methodsThis case-control study included 97 patients with idiopathic granulomatous mastitis and 100 healthy controls. Affective temperament, emotion regulation, and anxiety-depression symptoms were assessed using the Temperament Evaluation of Memphis, Pisa, Paris, and San Diego Autoquestionnaire, the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analyses had been performed to identify psychological predictors of recurrence, treatment resistance, and fistula formation.
resultsBetween-group analyses showed higher depressive and anxious temperament traits in women with idiopathic granulomatous mastitis, greater emotion regulation difficulties, and elevated anxiety-depression symptoms (all p<0.001). Emotion regulation impairment independently predicted treatment resistance (OR 2.86, p=0.004). In contrast, anxious temperament was inversely associated with both recurrence (OR 0.33, p=0.012) and treatment resistance (OR 0.35, p=0.010). No psychological variable predicted fistula formation.
conclusionIdiopathic granulomatous mastitis is associated with a distinct psychosomatic vulnerability profile. While impaired emotion regulation increases the risk of refractory disease, anxious temperament may be linked to protective vigilance-related behaviors. These findings support the integration of psychoneuroimmunology-informed psychological assessment into idiopathic granulomatous mastitis management.
