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

Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a heterogeneous disorder diagnosed in women before 40 years old and describes a wide range of impaired ovarian function, from diminished ovarian reserve to premature ovarian failure. Genetic etiology accounts for 20% to 25% of patients. The evidence that POI can be isolated (nonsyndromic) or part of a pleiotropic genetic syndrome highlights its high heterogeneous etiology. Chromosomal abnormalities as a cause of POI have a prevalence of 10% to 13%, being 45,X complement the most common cytogenetic cause of primary amenorrhea and mosaicism with a 45,X cell line more frequently associated with secondary amenorrhea. Other X chromosome aberrations include deletions, duplications, balanced, and unbalanced X-autosome rearrangements involving the critical region for the POI phenotype (Xq13-Xq21 to Xq23-Xq27). The identification of 2 or more pathogenic variants in distinct genes argues in favor of a polygenic origin for POI. Hundreds of pathogenic variants (including mitochondrial) have been involved in POI etiology mainly with key roles in biological processes in the ovary, such as meiosis and DNA damage repair mechanism, homologous recombination, follicular development, granulosa cell differentiation and proliferation, and ovulation. The most common single gene cause for POI is the premutation for
