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

Intramuscular progesterone remains an important formulation when prolonged systemic exposure is needed in gynecology and reproductive medicine. Demonstrating bioequivalence between a generic product and the reference formulation is necessary to support therapeutic interchangeability. The objectiveof thisstudy is to compare the pharmacokinetics, bioequivalence, safety, and tolerability of Prontogest 100 mg/2 mL intramuscular injection with the reference progesterone injection after a single dose under fasting conditions. In this open-label, randomized, single-dose, two-treatment, two-sequence, four-period fully replicated crossover study, healthy postmenopausal women received the test or reference product according to TRTR or RTRT sequences, separated by 15-day washout periods. Blood samples were collected up to 72 h after each dose, and plasma progesterone concentrations were measured using a validated LC-MS/MS method. The primary pharmacokinetic endpoints were baseline-corrected C
