Rectal endometriosis: a case report.
Article in Techniques in coloproctology, 2011. 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
We present the case of a 45-year-old female patient who was admitted with a history of pelvic pain, constipation, and dysmenorrhea. CT scan and u/s images revealed cholelithiasis, benign nodular hyperplasia of segment IV of the liver and uterine fibromyoma. During laparotomy, firm adhesions between the posterior wall of the uterus and the rectum were found and the incisional biopsy reveals an undifferentiated adenocarcinoma. Then, total resection of the uterus was performed with en block resection of the adherent part of the rectum and part of the posterior wall of the vagina. The final histopathological report showed the presence of uterine fibromyoma, nodular hyperplasia of the liver and rectal endometriosis without any sign of malignancy. The patient after 5 years of follow up remains healthy. Rectal endometriosis represents an uncommon localization of pelvic endometriosis where the symptoms and clinical findings are non-specific making the definitive preoperative diagnosis difficult. Endometriosis should be included in the differential diagnosis of chronic pelvic pain in combination with defecation disorders in female patients of reproductive age.
