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

Menstrual and mental health form a close relationship that is under-appreciated in scientific research, clinical practice and social policy. This association is extremely complex, involving interactions between biology, psychology and social, political and structural influences on health and wellbeing. Research in these areas has traditionally been siloed: focusing on menstrual or mental health in isolation, or the interrelation from a limited one-dimensional perspective. We recognised the need for a more holistic and comprehensive approach that considers the complex interweaving nature of menstrual and mental health. In 2021, we established the Menarche, Menstruation, Menopause and Mental Health (4M) consortium as a tool to address this gap and to facilitate interdisciplinary research. This paper provides a comprehensive source of information about 4M for researchers and stakeholders who may be interested in joining or working with the consortium.
