Müllerian Duct Anomalies and Anti-Müllerian Hormone Levels in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundSignificant associations between the presence of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and uterine anomalies have been reported. It is unclear whether high anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels coexist with the development of uterine malformations in women with PCOS. This study sought to investigate the association between Müllerian duct anomalies and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels in women with PCOS.
methodsIn this retrospective cohort study, the records of 1,391 women with PCOS were analyzed. The cohort was divided into a low-AMH group (n = 700) and a high-AMH group (n = 691), based on an AMH cutoff value of 8.45 ng/ml. Müllerian duct anomalies were classified into four subtypes based on three-dimensional ultrasonography: septate uterus, bicornuate uterus, uterus didelphys, unicornuate uterus, and arcuate uterus. The primary outcome was the overall incidence of Müllerian duct anomalies. The secondary outcome was the prevalence of the abovementioned specific types of Müllerian duct anomalies. The prevalence of Müllerian duct anomalies was analyzed using the chi-squared test or Fisher's exact test.
resultsAmong the patients with PCOS, the prevalence of unicornuate uterus anomalies was higher in the high-AMH group than in the low-AMH group (1.0% vs. 0.1%, P = 0.04). No statistically significant difference in the overall incidence of uterine malformations was found between the two AMH groups (4.3% vs. 5.7%, P = 0.22).
conclusionsOur study confirmed a higher prevalence of unicornuate uterus in PCOS women with high AMH levels. Clinicians might decide to investigate the possibility of a unicornuate uterus in PCOS women with high AMH levels.
