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

The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the religious attitudes of pregnant women and their depression, anxiety, and stress levels. This cross-sectional study was conducted among 349 pregnant women in Turkey. Data were collected through an online survey using a personal information form, the Religious Attitude Scale (RAS), and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21). The prevalence of moderate or higher depression, anxiety, and stress was 31.5%, 52.2%, and 5.7%, respectively. Higher religious attitude scores were associated with lower depression, anxiety, and stress scores in unadjusted analyses. After adjustment for age group and gestational trimester, higher religious attitude scores remained significantly associated with lower depression scores, whereas the associations with anxiety and stress were no longer statistically significant. These findings support the importance of screening pregnant women for depression, anxiety, and stress and considering their religious and cultural characteristics when providing care.
