Clinical opinion: the biologic and pharmacologic principles for age-adjusted long-term estrogen therapy.
Review in MedGenMed : Medscape general medicine, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The pathophysiologies of osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, and breast cancer are briefly reviewed within the context of the relevance and safety of long-term estrogen therapy (ET). Extrapolation of data from the known underlying biology of these diseases and the results of randomized controlled clinical trials suggest that selective ET is appropriate and safe for the majority of postmenopausal women. A key element to this clinical practice is individualization of ET, which includes timing of the initiation of therapy, selection of the route and possibly the type of estrogen prescribed, adjustment of the dose of estrogen over time to compensate for local tissue estrogen synthesis, and annual monitoring and reassessment of the indication for continuing therapy. Established disease requires disease-specific therapy but does not exclude ET cotherapy provided there is an indication for its use. Estrogen-dependent cancer is an absolute contraindication to systemic ET.
