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

The etiology of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is not exactly known, but there are indications that genetic factors, exposure to androgen in early childhood, and obesity lead to a disruption of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis and dysregulation of microRNAs. Chromosomal aberrations have rarely been described as a cause of PCOS. We present the case of a 20-year-old female diagnosed with PCOS at age 17 due to hyperandrogenism, obesity, polycystic ovaries, amenorrhoea, and emerging insulin resistance. A work-up for the cause of PCOS revealed a previously undescribed translocation 46XX t(2;9)(q21;p24). Alternative causes of PCOS were excluded. In addition, the patient had post-COVID syndrome. The patient was treated with contraceptive pills. PCOS can be caused by the translocation 46XX t(2;9)(q21;p24). The clinical manifestations of PCOS can be exacerbated by post-COVID syndrome.
