"Evaluation of four genes associated with primary ovarian insufficiency in a cohort of Mexican women".
Article in Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
purposePrimary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a clinical condition observed in women younger than 40 years of age, characterized by amenorrhea, hypoestrogenism, high levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and infertility. Mutations in some master regulators of the development, maturation, and maintenance of ovarian follicles such as BMP15, FSHR, FOXL2, and GDF9 have been suggested as etiological factors in the development of POI. The aim of this study, the first in the Mexican population, is to evaluate the presence of mutations or polymorphisms in these four candidate genes.
methodsIn a sample of 20 Mexican patients with idiopathic POI, we looked for and analyzed genetic variants in BMP15, FSHR, FOXL2, and GDF9 genes.
resultsWe observed two polymorphisms: a coding change, c.919G>A (p.Ala307Thr), in the FSHR gene and a synonymous variant, c.447C>T (p.Thr149Thr), in the GDF9 gene. These two variants have been reported previously as polymorphisms (rs6165 and rs254286, respectively). We observed no significant difference associated with POI in the patients when compared with a healthy control group (p > 0.05). Also, no exonic variants were found for the genes BMP15 and FOXL2 in the individuals tested.
conclusionsThe lack of association of the evaluated genes in this sample of Mexican women is consistent with the complex genetic etiology of POI that is observed across cohorts studied thus far.
