Validation of a new menstrual pictogram (superabsorbent polymer-c version) for use with ultraslim towels that contain superabsorbent polymers Julia L. Magnay, M.Sc., Tracy M. Nevatte, Ph.D., Shaughn O'Brien, D.Sc., Christoph Gerlinger, Ph.D., Christian Seitz, M.D. Fertility and Sterility Volume 101, Issue 2, Pages 515-522.e5 (February 2014) DOI: 10.1016/j.fertnstert.2013.10.051 Copyright © 2014 American Society for Reproductive Medicine Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 The menstrual pictogram (SAP-c version). Fertility and Sterility 2014 101, 515-522.e5DOI: (10.1016/j.fertnstert.2013.10.051) Copyright © 2014 American Society for Reproductive Medicine Terms and Conditions

Figure 2 Bland-Altman analysis of participant menstrual pictogram (MP) estimate of MBL versus alkaline hematin estimate of MBL (A) before and (B) after revision of icon blood volumes; n = 235 menstrual cycles. Alkaline hematin was used as the reference method to diagnose HMB (>80 mL blood loss per cycle), and the MP categorization is shown. Symbol interpretation: light blue diamond = true negative; red circle = true positive; green triangle = false negative; black square = false positive. The horizontal dotted lines denote the 95% limits of agreement.

Supplemental Figure 3 Polynomial regression analysis of total MFL measured as fluid weight versus MBL measured by the alkaline hematin method; n = 235 menstrual cycles. Symbol interpretation: blue diamond = blood loss ≤80 mL, red triangle = blood loss >80 mL. Data points within the circle denote the overlap in fluid weight between normal and HMB cycles.
