1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrinopathy of reproductive-aged women. PCOS reflects a number of possible etiologies but its pathophysiology is still unclear. The principal abnormality of the syndrome is hyperandrogenism (70-80%). The access of androgens to target tissues is regulated by sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), a transport protein secreted by liver i.e. specific for androgens. Present study was done to find the association of rs6259 polymorphism with SHBG levels and Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome in Indian population. Present study was a case control study. 400 subjects were enrolled for the study and serum SHBG levels and D327N polymorphism were measured. The D327N polymorphism (wild-type and variant allele) was detected using PCR-RFLP method (restriction enzyme Bbs-I). PCOS group was found to have significantly lower SHBG levels than healthy controls. There was no significant difference in genotype distribution between PCOS and controls (χ
