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
study purposeThis study investigates the relationship between anxiety, depression, and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms among university students through a comprehensive campus-wide survey.
methodsA cross-sectional online survey design was adopted in this study. A total of 437 students from three public medical universities in Saudi Arabia participated in the survey, which assessed anxiety and depression using standardized scales and GI symptoms through a tailored questionnaire.
resultsThe findings reveal a significant overlap between mental health disorders and GI symptoms, highlighting that students experiencing high levels of anxiety and depression frequently report GI issues. This correlation underscores the importance of integrated health strategies to address both mental and physical well-being.
conclusionThis study concludes that there is a significant correlation between anxiety, depression, and GI symptoms among university students. This highlights the need for comprehensive and integrated health interventions that address both mental and physical health to improve overall well-being and academic success in this population.
