Comparison of metabolic syndrome elements in White and Asian women with polycystic ovary syndrome: results of a regional, American cross-sectional study.
Article in F&S reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
objectiveTo examine differences in metabolic dysfunction between White, East Asian, and South Asian women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) living in the San Francisco Bay Area, California.
designCross-sectional study.
settingReferral clinic at an academic center. PATIENTS: A total of 243 White, 25 South Asian, and 38 East Asian women with PCOS, according to the Rotterdam criteria, aged 14-57 years, were recruited from May 2006 to May 2017.
interventionsNone.
main outcome measuresFasting and 2-hour insulin and glucose, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, and fasting lipids. Metabolic syndrome and its five individual components were defined according to the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel guidelines.
resultsMedian baseline body mass index (25.9 vs. 24.8 vs. 24.0 kg/m
conclusionsWhite, South Asian, and East Asian women with PCOS living in the same geographic region have comparable metabolic profiles to one another, although Asian women have higher 2-hour insulin levels and East Asian women, in particular, have higher 2-hour glucose levels.
