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

objectiveLong-term weight loss is important and difficult to achieve for many women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Lifestyle interventions (LS) in PCOS have shown moderate short-term effects. Three-component LS that combine nutrition advice, exercise, and cognitive behavioral therapy have not been tested in long-term interventions.

methodsWomen (N = 183) with PCOS who were trying to conceive and had BMI > 25 kg/m

resultsMore weight loss was observed in LS than in CAU (P < 0.001). Adding SMS was even more effective (P = 0.017). In CAU, 13 of 60 (21.8%) succeeded in achieving a 5% weight loss, as did 32 of 60 (52.8%) in LS without SMS and 54 of 63 (85.7%) in LS with SMS. The odds of achieving a 5% weight loss were 7.0 (P < 0.001) in LS compared with CAU. More than 18 of 60 (29.0%) of the women in CAU gained weight versus 5 of 60 (8.5%) and 2 of 63 (3.1%) in LS without or with SMS, respectively. The overall dropout rate was 116 of 183 (63.4%).

conclusionsA three-component LS program resulted in reasonable weight loss in women with PCOS. Adding SMS resulted in more weight loss.
