Effects of virtual reality interventions on anxiety symptoms in women undergoing gynecological examinations and surgeries: a multi-level dose-response meta-analysis.

For highly invasive procedures, the effect of VR interventions did not reach statistical significance ( K = 4, SMD = −0.48, 95% CI: −1.21 to 0.24, p = 0.189, I 2 = 92%), indicating no clear evidence of anxiety reduction in this subgroup (see Supplementary Table 2 ).

Instead, it should be viewed as representing an overall trend across heterogeneous gynecological settings.
