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: Age at menarche (AAM) is influenced by genetic and environmental factors and is associated with reproductive health outcomes. Therefore, understanding its genetic basis may help predict risks to women's health. This study aimed to identify genetic variants associated with AAM in the Korean population through a genome-wide association study (GWAS) and investigate the relationship between AAM and early menopause. Methods: In total, 6,150,556 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were generated from full genotyping data of the Health Examinee and Korea Association Resource cohorts, and analyses were conducted on 40,570 selected participants. A GWAS was performed using linear regression analysis with age and body mass index as covariates. A polygenic risk score (PRS) for AAM was constructed and categorized into quartiles, and logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the association between the PRS for AAM and early menopause. Results: The GWAS identified 30 significant SNPs associated with AAM. The most significant SNP was rs314275 (beta = 0.0925, Conclusion: Genetic determinants influence AAM and early menopause in the Korean population. These findings suggest that the genetic factors contributing to late menarche may also increase the risk of early menopause, highlighting the importance of considering genetic risks in women's health strategies.
