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: Menopause marks the natural end of reproductive phase of women caused by decline in levels of estrogen, progesterone and other reproductive hormones. Methodology: Sixty women (age 50.0 ± 7.4 years) randomized in two equal groups were administered with 100 mg SheVari4 Results: SheVari4 induced a 42.8% reduction in MENQOL versus placebo. Significant improvements in functioning (vs. placebo) were observed, respectively, across vasomotor (53.1% vs. 14.5%), psychosocial (53.6% vs. 9.9%), physical (39.2% vs. 6.5%) and sexual (29.4% vs. 10.7%) domains. The formulation also increased E2 (+36.44% vs. -2.08%) and progesterone (+0.30% vs. -2.88%) coupled with marked reduction in levels of FSH (-38.18% vs. +12.97%) and cortisol (-26.87% vs. +17.16%). Concomitantly, AMH, SHBG, and free testosterone were also favorably modulated. Blood biochemistry, liver function tests, and vital signs confirmed the broad-spectrum safety of SheVari4 Conclusion: SheVari4
