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

Purpose: Hyperprolactinemia is a common cause of female infertility, and prolactin-secreting pituitary macroadenomas pose unique challenges for fertility restoration and pregnancy management. Herein, we present two cases of primary infertility due to hyperprolactinemia with distinct etiologies. Case Presentation: Case 1: A 27-year-old woman with two years of amenorrhea and polycystic ovarian morphology did not undergo standard ovulation induction. Her serum prolactin level was 1334 ng/mL, and MRI revealed hemorrhagic pituitary macroadenoma. Dopamine agonist therapy with bromocriptine normalized prolactin to 13.09 ng/mL within six months, restored menses, and resulted in pregnancy complicated by severe preeclampsia, with successful delivery of a viable neonate requiring short-term respiratory support. Case 2: A 29-year-old woman with idiopathic hyperprolactinemia (initial prolactin 59.6 ng/mL) and a dominant right ovarian follicle received bromocriptine, achieving prolactin normalization (16.7 ng/mL) and bilateral follicular development. Adjunctive letrozole and continued dopamine agonist therapy for nine months led to conception and term vaginal delivery, without complications. Conclusion: These cases highlight that targeted dopamine agonist therapy may effectively normalize prolactin levels, restore ovulation, and achieve healthy term pregnancies in women with hyperprolactinemia, whether macroadenoma- is driven or idiopathic. Early recognition, individualized treatment, and multidisciplinary follow-up are essential to overcome reproductive obstacles in this high-risk population.
