Menopause and women's cardiovascular health: is it really an obvious relationship?
Article in Archives of medical science : AMS, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07615777 (A Pilot Study Investigating the Effects of a Nutritional Supplement on Physiological and Metabolic Markers in 38-55-year-old Females), which is not on this map. Cited by 136 papers, 6 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are common for men and women but there are differences between the sexes in terms of clinical symptoms, pathophysiology and response to the treatment. Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in women is commonly underdiagnosed and often women tend to have a lower perception of the risk. That can lead to delayed diagnosis and failed recognition of symptoms. Women develop heart diseases later than men because of the protection in the reproductive phase of their life. Once they enter menopause the risk increases. Estrogen provides a protective effect against heart disease in women. Therefore, the risk of CVD increases after menopause in most cases. The presented work emphasizes the importance of the menopausal period as the time of increasing CVD risk. It also emphasizes the importance of monitoring the health of women in their middle age, a critical time in which early intervention strategies should be implemented to reduce the risk of CVD.
