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

objectiveTo determine whether serum human follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels after single subcutaneous dosing of highly purified human menopausal gonadotropins (HP-hMG) in a liquid formulation and a powder formulation are bioequivalent. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis was a randomized, two-way, crossover, single-dose, bioequivalence trial comparing Menopur liquid injected by pre-filled pen, with Menopur powder injected by conventional syringe and needle. The primary endpoints were AUC

resultsIn total, 76 women were randomized, and 56 completed the trial. The mean FSH and hCG serum concentration-time profiles were comparable between the two HP-hMG formulations. The geometric mean ratios and 90% confidence intervals of FSH for HP-hMG liquid versus HP-hMG powder were 1.12 (1.0562 - 1.1889) for AUC

conclusionThe 90% CIs for the geometric mean ratios of serum FSH AUC
