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
backgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has a profound effect on patients' quality of lives; and it is important to identify the affecting factors. The aim of this study was to assess the status of and relationship between coping strategies and quality of life in women with PCOS. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn this cross-sectional study, we recruited 200 married women (20-50 years old) with PCOS from Arash and Bu Ali hospitals in Tehran in 2019-2020. Data were collected using the two following questionnaires: Coping strategies and quality of life. Data were analyzed using the regression analysis test in the SPSS-21.
resultsThe results showed that 119 (59.5%) participants were identified with increased hirsutism, 166 (83%) women were obese, 140 (70%) had irregular menstruation and 136 participants (68%) had painful menstruation as the side effects of PCOS. Sixty nine (34.5%) individuals reported unknown side effects. There was a relationship between emotional coping strategy and problem solving coping strategy with quality of life (beta = 0.270 and 0.219, respectively).
conclusionPatients with PCOS were more likely to use emotional coping strategies. Low quality of life exacerbated symptoms of the disease.
