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
Purpose: Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a cyclical psychosomatic disorder prevalent among women of reproductive age. However, research on the potential impact of PMS on routine nursing schedules and activities is limited. This study aims to identify the prevalence of PMS among female nursing staff and to examine the relationship between PMS and missed nursing care (MNC). Method: Between November 1, 2022, and April 30, 2023, this study was conducted among female nursing staff working in nine inpatient departments at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center. This study used a cross-sectional design. The participants were recruited through convenience sampling. Data were collected using the standardized Menstrual Distress Questionnaire, the Oncology Missed Nursing Care self-rating scale, and a sociodemographic questionnaire. One-way analysis of variance, Fisher's least significant difference test for post-hoc comparisons, and Spearman's correlation coefficient were utilized for data analysis. A trend test was also performed to explore patterns in the severity of PMS and MNC over time. Results: We collected a total of 224 questionnaires, with 154 (68.7%) female nursing staff reporting PMS. The most common symptoms were low back pain (91.1%), abdominal discomfort (90.6%), cold hands and feet (87.1%), and lethargy (87.1%). Moreover, 91.5% of the 224 female nursing staff reported at least one MNC activity. The nursing activities most frequently missed or left incomplete were liquid intake and output monitoring as ordered (43.3%), medication administration within 30 min before or after the scheduled time (43.3%), and electrocardiogram monitoring as ordered (42.9%). "Abdominal discomfort" from the Menstrual Distress Questionnaire was significantly correlated with the majority of MNC activities ( Conclusions: This study provides evidence for a strong association between PMS and MNC among female nursing staff, suggesting that administrators should take the premenstrual conditions of female nursing staff into consideration. It is necessary to provide appropriate understanding and support to mitigate the impact on patient care and safety.
