Article in BioMed research international, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07480993 (Evaluation of Serum Betatrophin Levels in Normal-Weight and Overweight Adolescents With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), which is not on this map. Cited by 11 papers.

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.

Abstract

The role of IR and metabolic disorders has become a crucial topic of study in the pathogenesis of PCOS. Adipose tissue is an important target organ of insulin, and adipose IR plays an important role in the occurrence and development of PCOS. This study seeks to investigate the role of adipose IR in the development of PCOS and to examine its relationship with circulating betatrophin levels in women with PCOS. A cross-sectional analysis of a cohort of women with PCOS and healthy women was performed in this study. Serum betatrophin concentrations were measured by ELISA. Adipose IR was calculated using the product of fasting insulin and FFA concentrations, and the relationship between adipose IR, circulating betatrophin, and other parameters was analyzed. Adipose IR in women with PCOS was significantly higher than that in controls. We found that women with PCOS who have adipose IR (adipose IR ≥ 55) have a higher BMI and higher blood glucose, insulin, PRL, FFA, TG, HOMA-
