Mental Health and PCOS Information-Sharing: Interviews with Health Care Providers in a Low-Income Urban Community.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 2023. 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
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a female metabolic-endocrine disorder typically characterized by menstrual dysfunction, hyperandrogenism, and/or polycystic ovaries. While comorbidity with poor mental health is often observed, it is less understood if women of color are given information on PCOS, mental health, or both by healthcare providers. This paper examines the information-sharing practices of healthcare providers serving a low-income, predominantly Latino/Hispanic municipality in Southeast Los Angeles, CA. Of 65 providers identified across 27 clinics in the service area, four participated in one-on-one semi-structured interviews. Four themes relating to PCOS and mental health information were identified using content analysis. Results suggest that information-sharing on PCOS is limited to symptomatic patients and varies by provider specialization. Poor mental health as a side effect of PCOS is not elaborated on during patient-provider interactions within the explored service area. Implications and directions for further research are discussed, including mixed methods approaches for contextual information on PCOS among women of color and recommendations for improving communication among healthcare providers.
