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

Estrogen plays a crucial role in regulating reproductive and neuroendocrine functions, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying its effects on the hypothalamus remain incompletely understood. This study investigates the transcriptional and behavioral changes induced by ovariectomy (OVX) and estradiol (E2) supplementation in female C57BL/6J mice. RNA sequencing was performed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) across control (CK), E2, OVX, and OVX+E2 groups, followed by functional enrichment and pathway analyses. Behavioral assessments, including open field, Y-maze, and elevated plus maze tests, were conducted to evaluate anxiety-like and cognitive behaviors. Results revealed significant alterations in GnRH signaling, neurotransmission, and inflammatory pathways, with key genes such as
