Follicle-Stimulating Hormone, Its Association with Cardiometabolic Risk Factors, and 10-Year Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in Postmenopausal Women.
Observational study in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04822857 (The Impact of Menopause on the Development of Heart Failure and Organ Damage of Hypertension), which is not on this map. Cited by 41 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.

Abstract
backgroundCardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality in postmenopausal women. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) shows negative associations with obesity and diabetes mellitus in postmenopausal women. We aimed to study the associations between FSH and 10-year risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) in postmenopausal women. METHODS AND
resultsSPECT-China (the Survey on Prevalence in East China for Metabolic Diseases and Risk Factors) is a 22-site, population-based study conducted during 2014-2015. This study included 2658 postmenopausal women. A newly developed effective tool for 10-year ASCVD risk prediction among Chinese was adopted. Regression analyses were performed to assess the relationship among FSH, 10-year ASCVD risk, and multiple cardiometabolic risk factors. With the increase in FSH quartiles, the mean 10-year ASCVD risk in postmenopausal women decreased from 4.9% to 3.3%, and most metabolic parameters were significantly ameliorated (all
conclusionsSerum FSH levels were negatively associated with 10-year ASCVD risk in postmenopausal women. Among cardiometabolic factors, obesity indices had the largest associations with FSH. These results indicated that a low FSH might be a risk factor or a biomarker for cardiovascular disease risk in postmenopausal women.
