Perimenopause and menopause in the military: a scoping review.
Article in Menopause (New York, N.Y.), 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
IMPORTANCE AND
objectiveMilitary service shapes the health and wellness of its members through a complex interplay of factors. These dynamics may influence the perimenopausal and menopausal experiences among military servicemembers. The objective of this scoping review is to identify and analyze literature on perimenopause/menopause in the military, explore geographical differences in menopausal experiences, and highlight knowledge gaps to guide future research studies and policy development.
methodsCINAHL, Embase, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were searched from inception until September 2024. The results were reported using PRISMA-ScR. DISCUSSION: Eighteen articles were included in this scoping review. Most studies were conducted in the United States (83%), among veterans (67%), and focused on a variety of outcomes. The major themes addressed in the articles included participant menopausal knowledge, menopausal hormone therapy, experience of menopause, and resources.
conclusionsThis scoping review systematically synthesized the evidence to offer a comprehensive overview of perimenopausal and menopausal research in a military context. Several gaps were identified, leading to the establishment of focused priorities for future research.
