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

Genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) is a common chronic condition in postmenopausal women, yet biomarkers predicting response to local estrogen therapy remain insufficiently defined. In this prospective study, 216 postmenopausal women with GSM received local estradiol vaginal tablet therapy for 12 weeks. Baseline assessments included symptom evaluation, vaginal pH, vaginal maturation index (VMI), and quantitative real-time PCR measurement of six target microorganisms. Treatment response was defined as an improvement of at least 2 points in the most bothersome symptom (MBS) score. After 12 weeks, MBS score, vaginal pH, and VMI improved significantly, with increased abundance of
