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
objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the use of menstrual hygiene products and genital hygiene practices among female university students.
methodA cross-sectional study design was employed. Data were collected using the Descriptive Information Form and the Genital Hygiene Behaviors Scale (GHBS). The Independent Samples t-test, ANOVA, and Post-hoc Tukey tests were used for data analysis.
resultsSignificant associations were found between GHBS scores and variables such as year in school, marital status, perceived income status, attending a health-related department, willingness to receive training in menstruation and genital hygiene (p < 0.05).
conclusionIt is recommended that regular educational programs, inter-institutional collaborations, and awareness-raising activities be implemented to promote students' reproductive health behaviors. Health policies should also aim to improve young people's access to menstrual products.
