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
Background: Menopause is a significant life transition during which women experience both physical and psychological changes. Aging anxiety has been identified as a key psychological factor that may negatively affect menopause-specific quality of life. However, the mediating roles of self-efficacy and self-acceptance in the relationship between aging anxiety and quality of life have not been sufficiently examined. Objective: This study aimed to examine the parallel mediating roles of self-efficacy and self-acceptance in the relationship between aging anxiety and menopause-specific quality of life among women experiencing menopausal symptoms. Methods: This study used secondary data from 114 women experiencing menopausal symptoms ( Results: Aging anxiety showed a significant direct effect on menopause-specific quality of life (B = 1.40, Conclusion: These findings suggest that aging anxiety may influence menopause-specific quality of life both directly and indirectly through the combined effects of self-efficacy and self-acceptance. Self-efficacy and self-acceptance may operate jointly rather than independently as mediators in this relationship. Therefore, interventions aimed at reducing aging anxiety and strengthening psychological resources may be beneficial for improving quality of life among women experiencing menopausal symptoms.
