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

Objective: To describe the lived experience of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in central Chile. Material and methods: Qualitative study with an interpretative phenomenological approach. Individual interviews were conducted with seven women diagnosed with PCOS. Participants were identified through key informants using purposive sampling. Data interpretation was performed through thematic analysis. Results: The lived experience highlights PCOS as a negative condition in their lives. The findings of this study were consolidated into two main categories, which describe the experience of discovering their diagnosis and what it means to live with PCOS. Conclusion: It is essential to assess the mental health and quality of life of women with PCOS. Adolescents and adult women should receive adequate information about the syndrome, and their perspectives should be considered when determining the best management approach.
