Measuring IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 Profiles in Women Seeking Assisted Reproduction; Relationship to Clinical Parameters (Study 1).
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This study examines the IGF serum profile (IGF-1, IGFBP-3 and the IGF Ratio) from 1633 women who undertook an Assessment Cycle prior to any treatment by assisted reproduction. The idea is to progressively study the IGF profile with a view to identify those women who may be classified as having adult growth hormone deficiency (AGHD) and who may benefit from specific dynamic endocrinological testing to identify a potential benefit from growth hormone adjuvant treatment. This first study evaluates the IGF profile on clinical parameters, namely age, body mass index (BMI) and stature. The study shows a significant linear reduction in IGF-1 levels across the four age groups (<35 years, 35-39 years, 40-44 years and ≥45 years;
