Microbial Dysbiosis and Pathogenic Interplay in the Gut-Vaginal Axis: Implications for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Critical Review.
Review in Current microbiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
PCOS is the most common endocrine condition among reproductive-age women. This disorder causes irregular menstrual periods, increased hair growth, anovulation, and pregnancy difficulties. PCOS affects more than reproductive health. Recent PCOS research has focused on the Gut-Vaginal Axis, stressing the gut-vaginal microbiota reciprocal interaction. Modern society's ubiquitous stress affects hormonal activity. Stress-induced hormonal shifts may alter the vaginal and gut microbiomes These surroundings' microbial populations may contribute to PCOS-related systemic inflammation, insulin resistance, and reproductive difficulties. Stress hormones and microbiome abnormalities are linked with PCOS, but the mechanisms are yet unknown. This study examines how stress hormones affect gut and vaginal microbiomes in PCOS patients.
