Clinical Re-evaluation on Bioequivalence and Relative Bioavailability of Micronized Progesterone Hard Capsule (Yimaxin) and Micronized Progesterone Soft Capsule (Utrogestan) under Vaginal and Oral Administration Routes.
Article in Pakistan journal of medical sciences. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveTo clinically re-evaluate relative bioavailability and bioequivalence of micronized progesterone (hard capsule) Yimaxin and micronized progesterone (soft capsule) Utrogestan under vaginal and oral administration routes.
methodsFrom December 2017 to June 2018, a total of 16 postmenopausal healthy women were recruited and received a total of four rounds of drug treatment with cross-over design, respectively Yimaxin and Utrogestan under vaginal and oral administration routes. Changes in the subjects' hormone levels after medication were monitored and an endometrial biopsy after a course of treatment was performed in our hospital.
resultThe Geomeans of AUC
conclusionYimaxin was not bioequivalent to Utrogestan. Yimaxin had higher exposure to the drug in vivo at the same dose when administered vaginally, and Utrogestan had higher exposure to the drug in vivo at the same dose when administered orally.
