A Potential Link Between Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Asthma: a Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
While there exists some evidence indicating a higher prevalence of asthma in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients, whether PCOS is an independent risk factor for asthma remains debatable. In this report, a systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to assess the association between PCOS and asthma. Using of the terms "PCOS," "polycystic ovary syndrome," "polycystic ovarian syndrome," "Stein Leventhal Syndrome," "asthma," and "wheezing," PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Trial Register, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Wanfang databases were searched for studies published from their inceptions to February 2021. The data were extracted and a meta-analysis was conducted under the guidance of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). A random-effects model was used to calculate the odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). A total of 6 articles involving 26,876 PCOS women and 156,143 healthy controls were included in this survey. Our results indicate that PCOS patients showed an increased risk of asthma (OR = 1.75, 95% CI = 1.40-2.19, I
