The Correlation between Hormonal Disturbance in PCOS Women and Serum Level of Kisspeptin.
Article in International journal of endocrinology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
backgroundKisspeptin is a neuropeptide that upregulates gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion. It is an essential element for the luteinizing hormone (LH) surge and ovulation. Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) expose alteration in both GnRH and LH secretion levels.
objectiveThis paper aims to evaluate serum kisspeptin levels in healthy and polycystic ovarian syndrome women. Furthermore, it investigates the effect of obesity and age on circulating kisspeptin levels in both normal and PCOS women. Moreover, it points out the correlation between kisspeptin and other hormonal parameters.
resultsKisspeptin levels were higher in PCOS patients than those in the normal group. Kisspeptin correlated with serum free testosterone level (
conclusionThe serum kisspeptin level is higher in PCOS women. Its levels fluctuate during the menstrual cycle, but these fluctuations are disturbed in PCOS women. The effect of BMI on serum kisspeptin levels is insignificant, and kisspeptin serum levels increase with age.
