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

objectivesTo evaluate if current night shift work is associated with anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) concentrations. STUDY

designWe analyzed baseline data from participants in the Study of the Environment, Lifestyle, and Fibroids (SELF), a prospective cohort study of Black women recruited 2010-2012 in metropolitan Detroit, MI. Our cohort comprised 1641 participants with serum AMH determined at baseline. AMH concentrations were used to measure ovarian reserve, i.e. the quantity of oocytes remaining in the ovary. On self-administered baseline questionnaires, participants reported whether they currently worked night shifts and, if so, how frequently. We used multivariable linear regression models to estimate percent differences and 95 % confidence intervals (CI) in mean AMH concentrations across categories of current night shift work (non-current, <1/month, ≥1/month), adjusting for covariates known to be associated with AMH concentrations (e.g., demographic factors such as age, abnormal bleeding, and contraceptive use) and baseline sleep characteristics (sleep duration, satisfaction, and efficiency).

main outcome measureMean anti-Müllerian hormone concentrations.

resultsMean AMH concentrations were similar in the group of frequent night shift workers (n = 196, 12 %) and the group of infrequent/non-current night shift workers (n = 1445, 88 %): 4.78 ± 4.15 ng/mL vs. 5.14 ± 4.20 ng/mL. Results were similar after adjusting for potential confounders, with only a small percent difference in AMH concentrations of -8.1 % observed between the two groups (95 % CI -19.8 %, 5.4 %).

conclusionsFrequent night shift work was not appreciably associated with AMH concentrations in this large cohort of reproductive-aged Black women.
