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

Oestradiol (E2), a steroid hormone derived from cholesterol, has long been recognized for its central role in female reproduction and pathobiology of menopause. However, accumulating evidence underscores a critical role for E2 in the regulation of systemic metabolism in both women and men. The metabolic actions of E2 are predominantly mediated by oestrogen receptor α (encoded by ESR1), a nuclear receptor with heritable expression patterns and tissue-specific transcript levels highly correlated with indices of metabolic health in both sexes. Here we provide an overview of the cell-specific actions of E2 and its receptors (α and β) in modulating key metabolic pathways. We contextualize these mechanistic preclinical studies with epidemiological data linking the menopausal transition to a marked rise of metabolic disease risk and provide evidence that E2 replacement mitigates this risk by preserving metabolic health.
