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

purposeIn women, menopause manifests with a variety of symptoms related to sex-hormone deficiency. Supplementing steroid hormones with pharmacological drugs has been widely practiced. However, considering the possible complications associated with artificial hormone therapy, studies have been conducted to find an alternative to pharmacological hormone replacement therapy. Accordingly, this study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of tissue-based hormone replacement therapy (tHRT) for treating post-menopausal signs and symptoms. MATERIALS AND

methodsCD-1 mice were ovariectomized, and the ovaries were cryopreserved. Following artificial induction of post-menopausal osteoporosis, cryopreserved ovaries were subcutaneously autografted, and indexes related to bone health were monitored for 12 weeks. Bone mineral density (BMD), bone mineral contents (BMC), total bone volume (BV), and body fat mass were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. Uterine atrophy was assessed histologically, and bone microstructures were imaged by micro-computed tomography analysis.

resultsRegardless of the number of grafted ovaries, the BMC, BMD, and BV values of mice that underwent ovary transplantation were better than those that did not undergo transplantation. The uteruses in these mice were thicker and heavier after auto-transplantation. Furthermore, the bone microstructure recovered after tHRT.

conclusionRecovery of menopause-related bone loss and uterine atrophy was achieved through tHRT. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation may be applicable not only in patients wanting to preserve fertility but also in sex hormone-deficient post-menopausal women.
