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

purpose of reviewThis review considers how reproductive aging may impact the trajectory of menstrually related mood disorders (MRMDs) such as premenstrual dysphoric disorder and considers how the treatment of MRMDs might require adjustment as patients approach midlife. RECENT

findingsThe early menopause transition is accompanied by important hormonal changes that may exacerbate existing MRMDs. Indeed, recent research confirms that an important subset of women experiences depressive mood in response to perimenopausal elevations in ovarian hormones. In addition, a subset of women with an MRMD may exhibit an increased mood sensitivity to the ovarian hormone withdrawal that accompanies the late menopause transition and early postmenopausal phase. Though additional research is needed to clarify the trajectory of premenstrual dysphoria in the menopause transition, there is reason to believe that health care providers should be vigilant for a potential worsening of symptoms in perimenopause for women with past or current premenstrual dysphoric disorder.
