1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Genito-pelvic pain/penetration disorder (GPPPD) may present as unconsummated marriage and receive less attention when pregnancy is prioritized. Case: A 39-year-old woman and her husband presented after 5 years without penovaginal intercourse despite fertility treatment. Clinical history supported GPPPD. Primary care included biopsychosocial assessment, psychoeducation, and couple support. Stepwise care included paced breathing, pelvic floor relaxation stretches, lubricant, graded insertion, and vaginal dilation. Intercourse was achieved after 8 months, patient-rated overall satisfaction rose from 0 to 85/100, and she had a child. Conclusion: Family physicians may support couples with GPPPD using biopsychosocial, stepwise care when specialist services are limited.
