Efficacy and Safety of Shatavari Root Extract for the Management of Menopausal Symptoms: A Double-Blind, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background Menopause is a physiological state that occurs in all women and refers to the halt of the reproductive phase. The cessation of the reproductive phase occurs through various stages and presents different symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, anxiety, depression, and irritability. Such pre- and post-menopausal symptoms may affect the daily activities and production capacities of women, impacting the quality of life (QoL) of women. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is primarily used to manage menopausal symptoms. However, various side effects have been reported related to HRT. Therefore, women are choosing alternative medicine such as Ayurveda that can benefit them with less or no adverse effects. Shatavari (
