Association between uterine fibroids and antimüllerian hormone concentrations among African American women.
Article in Fertility and sterility, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 evaluate the extent to which uterine fibroids are associated with antimüllerian hormone (AMH) concentrations.
designCross-sectional study.
settingBaseline data from the Study of the Environment, Lifestyle, and Fibroids, which is a 5-year longitudinal study of African American women. PATIENT(S): A total of 1,643 women aged 23-35 years without a known history of fibroids. EXPOSURE: Fibroid presence. INTERVENTION(S): None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): The primary outcome was percent difference in the mean AMH concentration between participants with fibroids and those without fibroids. The secondary outcomes were percent differences in the mean AMH concentrations in participants with different numbers, sizes, types, and positions of fibroids and the percent difference in the mean AMH concentration in participants with different uterine volumes. RESULT(S): At least 1 fibroid was identified on ultrasound in 362 (22%) participants. There was a small difference in the mean AMH concentrations in participants with fibroids (age-adjusted model: -4.6%, 95% confidence interval (CI): -14.5% to 6.5%; multivariable model: -4.6%, 95% CI: -14.4% to 6.3%). The mean AMH concentrations were found to decrease with increasing fibroid number. Although differences in AMH concentrations were not statistically significant, compared with no fibroids, the mean percent differences in AMH concentrations for 1, 2-3, and ≥4 fibroids were -1.2% (95% CI: -13.2% to 12.5%), -7.1% (95% CI: -23.3% to 12.5%), and -17.5% (95% CI: -38.2% to 10.0%), respectively. There were no consistent associations between AMH concentrations and fibroid location, size, or uterine volume. CONCLUSION(S): The presence of fibroids was not materially associated with AMH concentrations. Other than a monotonic inverse relationship between fibroid number and AMH concentrations, no other fibroid characteristics were consistently or appreciably associated, although associations were imprecise.
