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 evaluate the efficacy of Fenavari, a novel formulation of standardized Methods: This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-arm, parallel-group study enrolled women aged 40-60 years with menopausal symptoms. A total of 150 participants were randomized (1:1:1) to receive Fenavari 300 mg, Fenavari 500 mg, or placebo once daily for 84 days. Menopausal symptoms were assessed using the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS), sleep using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, mood using the Profile of Mood States, and anxiety using the Beck Anxiety Inventory at baseline and Days 14, 28, 56, and 84. Hormonal parameters (serum estradiol, progesterone, and follicle-stimulating hormone [FSH]) were measured at baseline and on Days 56 and 84. Safety and laboratory assessments were conducted throughout the study. Results: A total of 138 participants completed the study. Both Fenavari 300 mg and 500 mg significantly reduced MRS total scores from Day 14 through Day 84 compared with placebo (Fenavari 300 mg: -8.26 ± 0.46, Conclusion: Fenavari significantly improved menopausal symptoms across somatic, psychological, and vasomotor domains from Day 14 onward, and improved sleep, anxiety, and mood along with favorable hormonal changes and good tolerability, supporting its potential as a safe nonhormonal option for menopause management.
