1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Contraceptive methods are widely used, yet their impact on menstrual cycle regularity remains a topic of clinical significance. This study aims to investigate how different contraceptive methods influence menstrual cycle regularity in reproductive-age women. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted on 300 women, aged 18-45, categorized into three groups: oral contraceptives, intrauterine devices (IUDs), and hormonal implants. Menstrual cycle regularity, defined by the number of cycles within 28-32 days, was assessed over six months. Results: Oral contraceptives resulted in the most regular cycles ( Conclusion: Oral contraceptives promote the highest regularity in menstrual cycles, followed by IUDs. Hormonal implants showed higher variability in cycle regularity.
