Prevalence of cardiometabolic outcomes in women who underwent salpingo-oophorectomy to prevent hereditary breast and ovarian cancer: a meta-analysis.

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.
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
Risk reduction salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO) is usually performed in women with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome for BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene mutation carriers, resulting in surgical menopause, which is more associated with a high risk of cardiovascular and metabolic disease than in premenopausal and natural menopausal women. This study assessed the prevalence of cardiovascular and metabolic outcomes in women who underwent salpingo-oophorectomy as a preventive measure against HBOC. This meta-analysis assessed prevalence rates for four metabolic/cardiovascular conditions: myocardial infarction, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. DerSimonian and Laird random-effects models were applied to all analyses, with 95% confidence interval (CI). Heterogeneity was assessed with I². We used OpenMeta Analyst software for statistical analysis. A total of five retrospective studies and one observational study involving 1,320 patients were included. The average body mass index (BMI) was 25.97 kg/m2 and the average waist circumference was 87.94 cm. The analysis across a mean 4.94-year follow-up revealed prevalence rates for acute myocardial infarction of 1.5% (95% CI 0.3-2.7; P = 0.077; I²=56.25%), hypertension of 28% (95% CI 6.9-49.1; P < 0.001; I
