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

backgroundTo study whether CAG repeat polymorphism of androgen receptor (AR) contributes to the risk of polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM) with antral follicle count (AFC) ≥ 20 in the context of new international guideline of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

methodsBlood of 109 PCOS cases and 61 controls were collected for the measurement of AR CAG repeats length by sequencing. The mean number and frequency distribution of CAG repeats length were observed. Detailed analysis was conducted by dividing PCOS cases into low AFC group (L-AFC, AFC < 20) and high AFC group (H-AFC, AFC ≥ 20) according to the new international evidence-based guideline.

resultsThe portion of individuals with lower CAG repeats length in H-AFC group was significantly larger than those with higher CAG repeats length. Logistic model revealed individuals with lower CAG length tended to develop H-AFC.

conclusionLower CAG repeats length in the AR gene of PCOS cases increases risk of PCOM.
