Pulmonary Function and Psychological Distress among Women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: A Cross-sectional Study.
Article in Journal of human reproductive sciences. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a multisystemic endocrine disorder associated with metabolic and psychological alterations. While psychological distress in PCOS is widely documented, pulmonary function and its relationship to psychological health have not yet been explored in sufficient depth. Aim: To assess pulmonary function and psychological distress among women with PCOS and to examine the relationship between respiratory parameters and psychological variables. Settings and Design: A cross-sectional observational study conducted among women with clinically confirmed PCOS in institutional and community settings. Materials and Methods: Women of early reproductive age with diagnosed PCOS were included. Pulmonary function was assessed using spirometric parameters, including forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV Statistical Analysis Used: Data were analysed using SPSS version 23. Continuous variables were expressed as mean ± standard deviation, and categorical variables as frequencies and percentages. Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to determine associations between pulmonary function parameters and psychological distress scores. Results: A total of 298 women participated in the study, with a mean age of 22.03 ± 3.30 years. Pulmonary assessment showed mildly reduced lung volumes with lower mean FVC and FEV Conclusion: Women with PCOS demonstrate reduced pulmonary function and significant psychological distress, with inverse associations between respiratory and psychological parameters.
