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

Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effects of Bushen Huoxue Formula combined with aerobic exercise (COMB) on reproductive function in obese polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) mice. Methods: Seventy-six 3-week-old female C57BL/6JGpt mice were randomly divided into a control group (CON, Results: After 8 weeks of intervention, MET, BHF, AE, and COMB groups showed significant improvements in ovarian morphology, body weight, BFP, insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), and serum sex hormone levels (P<0.05). Compared with the BHF and AE groups, the COMB group demonstrated superior effects in reducing BFP, T levels, and HOMA-IR (P<0.05). All intervention groups showed higher pregnancy rates compared to the MOD group. Notably, the BHF, AE, and COMB groups exhibited lower abortion and embryo loss rates than the MET group. COMB group showed the most favorable pregnancy outcomes, including higher pregnancy rate, lower abortion and embryo absorption rates, and increased total number of embryos. Conclusion: The combined intervention of the COMB group demonstrated superior therapeutic effects on reproductive function in obese PCOS mice compared to the individual interventions of the BHF group or AE group, with a better safety profile. The integrated sports-medicine approach shows promising clinical potential.
