Dairy Intake and Uterine Fibroid Development: A Prospective Study.
Article in Journal of women's health (2002), 2026. 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
backgroundDairy intake has been associated with lower fibroid incidence in some studies, but none used standardized serial ultrasound screening to detect fibroids.
methodsWe examined dairy intake and fibroid development in the Study of Environment, Lifestyle and Fibroids, a prospective cohort (2010-2018) of 1,610 Black/African American women with no prior clinical diagnosis of fibroids. At the baseline, participants completed a Food Frequency Questionnaire about their intake of daily milk, cheese, yogurt, and total dairy. At three follow-up visits, conducted approximately every 20 months, participants updated their cow's milk intake. Incident cases were those with ultrasound-detected fibroids among those fibroid-free at the baseline ultrasound. We used Cox proportional hazards models to estimate adjusted hazard ratios for fibroid incidence with 95% confidence intervals (CI). For fibroid growth, we calculated the change in log-volume from one visit to the next.
resultsThe majority (83%) of participants consumed
conclusionsThe data from this prospective ultrasound study provide some evidence that dairy intake may reduce fibroid growth.
