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

Although estrogen-progestin therapy has traditionally been standard care for postmenopausal women with an intact uterus experiencing bothersome menopausal symptoms, concerns about side effects related to menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) have led to a dramatic decrease in MHT use over recent decades. As many MHT side effects are now believed to be associated with the progestin component of MHT, efforts have been made to develop a progestin-free alternative to conventional MHT. Recently, a tissue-selective estrogen complex (TSEC), a combination of conjugated estrogen and bazedoxifene, was developed as a progestin-free MHT and is now approved and used worldwide for the relief of vasomotor symptoms and the prevention of bone loss in postmenopausal women. Replacement of synthetic progestin with bazedoxifene could allow more favorable safety profiles, such as those for pain or tenderness, mammographic density, and cancer incidence, for the breast. This review examined the effects of the TSEC on breasts and demonstrated evidence from preclinical and clinical studies supporting TSEC use in clinical practice.
