Polycystic ovarian syndrome in patients with lipodystrophy: Report of 2 cases with review of literature.
Article in Indian journal of endocrinology and metabolism, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Lipodystrophy is a clinical disorder characterized by maldistribution of body fat. Hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, and abnormalities of glucose homeostasis are commonly described among these patients. Hyperinsulinemia is also involved in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovarian syndrome, a condition, described rarely in patients with lipodystrophy. Here, we describe 2 females of partial lipodystrophy who presented with features of polycystic ovarian disease. Both had severe hyperinsulinemia and irregular periods, one had hyperandrogenism and hirsuitism while the other was non-hirsuite.
