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
Introduction Suicidal ideation (SI), planning, and attempts have been found to be more common in women with premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). This study assessed the association between PMS, PMDD, and SI within the Makkah population, in Saudi Arabia. Methodology A descriptive cross-sectional study that simply characterizes the prevalence of a health outcome in a specified population was done on 733 women using an online questionnaire. Data about demographics, menstrual cycle, PMS, past psychiatric history, prior history of PMDD, and previous drug treatment for PMDD were collected. The chi-square and Fisher exact tests were applied. Results Of the participants, 540 (73.7%) had an age represented the age of 18-25 years old, 551 (75.2%) were single, 592 (80.8%) did not have children, 352 (48.0%) had a four-year college education, and 552 (75.3%) had a monthly income of less than 5000 SR. Exactly 704 (96.0%) were menstruating, 539 (73.5%) had regular menstrual cycles, 640 (87.3%) reported low shock trauma, 201 (27.4%) reported a history of anxiety, and 541 (73.8%) reported an impact of premenstrual disorders on mental health. Of them, 662 (90.3%) experienced premenstrual symptoms, 53 (7.2%) had a previous diagnosis of premenstrual symptoms, and 62 (8.5%) had a history of a suicide attempt. Those aged 18 to 25 years, who have no children, have a monthly income of less than 5000, are unemployed, have irregular menstruation, have medical interventions due to premenstrual symptoms, have a lifelong history of depression or anxiety, and have a history of high shock trauma had a significantly higher prevalence of a history of a suicide attempt. These factors were independent predictors on regression analysis. Conclusion The link between PMD and the likelihood of suicide attempts highlights how crucial it is to treat severe PMDs in the context of mental health.
