Uterine and body temperament in women with and without polycystic ovary syndrome: a case-control study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Assessing the temperament of various organs can be a significant factor in preventing or managing conditions related to those organs. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the uterine and body temperaments in women with and without PCOS. This case-control study involved 150 participants, with 75 individuals in each group. The participants were selected between May and November 2023 in Babol, Iran. Samples were matched based on demographic characteristics. Both groups completed demographic and uterine and body temperaments questionnaires designed by Saeidi in Tehran. Logistic regression analysis, with a 95% odds ratio (OR) and confidence interval (CI), were used to determine the effect size in the model. A significance level of P < 0.05 was considered. Regarding body temperament, the results indicated that women with and without PCOS had a cold temperament in 11 (57.9%) and 8 (42.7%) individuals, respectively, which was not statistically significant (OR 1.87, 95% CI 0.0.64, 5.47, P = 0.25). Body temperament was also not significantly different in terms of heat and dryness between women with and without PCOS (OR 1.41, 95% CI 0.64, 3.10, P = 0.38). However, in terms of uterine temperament, 39 (61.9%) women with PCOS and 24 (38.1%) without PCOS exhibited a cold temperament, showing a significant statistical difference between the two groups (OR 2.49, 95% CI .69, 5.33, P = 0.018) after adjusting for demographic and midwifery variables. The predominant uterine temperament in women with PCOS was cold, with no significant difference in body temperament between individuals with PCOS and those without. Therefore, it is plausible to consider the use of complementary medicine to balance and aid in treating uterine temperament in these individuals.
