Factors affecting reproductive outcome following abdominal myomectomy.
Article in Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
purposeFibroids may cause infertility and recurrent pregnancy loss. Studies have analysed the reproductive results after myomectomy according to the size, location and number of fibroids removed, but data are insufficient about comparison of opening the uterine cavity or not during surgery. MATERIALS AND
methodsTwo hundred twenty-nine abdominal myomectomies with the indication of infertility and/or recurrent pregnancy loss were analysed retrospectively. The main purpose was to compare postoperative pregnancy, delivery and miscarriage rates according to either the uterine cavity was opened or not during the surgery. As a secondary outcome postoperative pregnancy rates were assessed by location, size and number of fibroids.
resultsThere was no significant difference in reproductive results according to either the uterine cavity was opened or remained closed. Preoperative location, size and number of fibroids did not influence significantly the postoperative pregnancy rates.
conclusionOpening the uterine cavity does not impair postoperative pregnancy rates. Preoperative location, size and number of fibroids do not influence postoperative reproductive results.
