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

Aging in females is not only associated with the changes in hormonal status but is also responsible for dysregulation of immune functions in various organs including ovaries. The goal of this study was to determine whether the expression of interleukin 16 (IL-16), a proinflammatory and chemoattractant cytokine, changes during ovarian aging, to determine factors involved in such changes in IL-16 expression, and to examine if changes in IL-16 expression during aging predisposes the ovary to pathologies. Ovarian tissues from premenopausal women (30-50 years old), women at early menopause (55-59 years old), and late menopause (60-85 years old) were used. In addition, tumor tissues from patients with ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma at early stage (
