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
Objectives: Premenstrual symptoms, commonly referred to as PMS symptoms, pose difficulties for women in the workforce, impacting their efficiency and overall health. This research sought to explore if a short, online integrated yoga module, customized for working women, could help reduce PMS symptoms. Materials and Methods: A group of 76 employed women (23 to 38 years) in Mumbai and Delhi, self-reporting premenstrual syndrome (PMS), were recruited through social media advertisements and split into two groups: The experimental group (n = 40) received yoga sessions for 12 weeks (five sessions per week), each lasting between 18 and 24 minutes; the other served as the control group (n = 36). The control group did not engage in any yoga activities. Both groups completed the Premenstrual Symptoms Screening Tool (PSST) questionnaire before and after the study. Results: The yoga group showed improvements in 11 of the 14 (Emotional, Behavioral, and Physical) PMS symptoms ( Conclusion: Results highlight that the tailored 5 days a week online, integrated yoga module for working women significantly relieves most of the PMS symptoms and can be prescribed for the treatment of PMS for working women.
