PLASMA NEPRILYSIN LEVELS IN PATIENTS WITH POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME.
Article in Acta endocrinologica (Bucharest, Romania : 2005). 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
Context: Insulin resistance has been detected in a majority of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Elevated neprilysin levels are associated with insulin resistance. Objective: The present study aims to investigate plasma neprilysin and its relationship with endocrine and metabolic characteristics in patients with PCOS. Subjects and Methods: Thirty-five premenopausal PCOS patients and 35 healthy volunteers of similar age were included in the study. Demographic characteristics, biochemical and hormonal findings and also plasma neprilysin levels were determined in these patients and healthy controls. Results: In our study, HOMA-IR values were significantly higher in PCOS patients (3.3 ± 1.8) compared with the controls [(1.6 ± 1), p<0.01]. Plasma neprilysin levels were significantly higher in the PCOS group compared to the control group (1502.1 ± 1641.2 Conclusion: Our findings revealed significantly higher levels for plasma neprilysin and HOMA-IR values in PCOS patients when compared to controls. No significant differences were noted between obese PCOS patients and non-obese PCOS patients in terms of plasma neprilysin levels.
