Diagnostic Criteria and Genetic Basis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Narrative Review.
Review in Metabolites, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study reviews the main candidate genes involved in the pathophysiology of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). PCOS is a common endocrine-metabolic disorder in women of reproductive age, characterized by menstrual irregularity, hyperandrogenism, and polycystic ovarian morphology. It is associated with increased metabolic and cardiovascular risk and is a leading cause of infertility. Although its pathophysiology is not fully understood, alterations in the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, insulin metabolism, and steroidogenesis have been described. Polymorphisms in genes encoding hormones, enzymes, and receptors in these pathways contribute to clinical variability and ethnic differences, offering potential for early diagnosis and personalized medicine. This review summarizes key candidate genes related to insulin metabolism (INS, INSR, IRS-1), the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis (LHβ, LHCGR, FSHR, GnRHR, AMH, AMHR2, KISS1, CAPN10), steroidogenesis (CYP11A, CYP17A1, CYP19A1, CYP21, 17β-HSD, SHBG, AR, STAR), and other clinically relevant mechanisms such as obesity, lipid metabolism (PPARG, VDR, FTO), and follicular development (ACE).
