Heavy menstrual bleeding clinics for adolescents.
Review in Hematology. American Society of Hematology. Education Program, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is a common symptom in adolescence, often leading to significant disruptions in daily life, such as school absences, shame caused by the stigma surrounding menstruation, and symptoms from iron deficiency. Further, HMB may be the first and/or only sign of an underlying bleeding disorder. Navigating the symptoms, effects, and treatments of HMB during adolescence requires a collaborative approach between the patient, caregivers, and healthcare providers. This work can be effectively and efficiently conducted in interdisciplinary clinics, where patients see hematology, gynecology, and adolescent providers. In these settings, healthcare providers exchange knowledge and expertise, after which they can reach a consensus for diagnostic evaluation and therapeutic intervention. Development and implementation of an interdisciplinary hematology and gynecology clinic can be challenging; however, the crucial rationale is that established clinics improve patient outcomes. Using an example interdisciplinary adolescent clinic, we outline the critical components needed to execute a successful clinic for adolescents with HMB and share key takeaways.
