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
Background: Regular menstruation represents reproductive health and quality of life of women. However, many women suffer from menstrual disorders at some point in their life. The occurrence of such abnormalities is affected by two key factors: BMI and physical activity. This study aims to analyse the relationship of these two factors to menstrual disorders. Materials and Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 502 women in Uttar Pradesh, India, from July 2021 to January 2023. Samples were selected using purposive sampling technique. The data were analysed using Pearson's Chi-square test on MS Excel 2013 and IBM SPSS 29.0.0.0 (240) software. Results: Mean age of the research subjects was 25.84 + 6.30 years, mean weight was 60.29 + 11.22 kg, mean height was 155.34 + 11.77 cm, and mean BMI was 25.36 + 6.06 kg. 68.92% subjects had regular age at menarche. Most common menstrual disorders were PMS (41.63%) and dysmenorrhea (28.29%). As per BMI categories, most disorders were found in obese (94.87%) and underweight (93.62%) subjects. As per physical activity categories, most disorders were found in low (76.55%) and high (76.40%) category subjects. A significant relationship was found between menstrual disorder and BMI (χ Conclusion: The menstrual disorders in women are significantly related to their BMI and physical activity. Women are advised to focus on having a balanced, nutritious diet and indulge in moderate physical activity to improve their reproductive health and quality of life.
