The Role of Complementary and Alternative Medicine for the Management of Fibroids and Associated Symptomatology.
Review in Current obstetrics and gynecology reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
This article discusses the role of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in the management of fibroids and associated symptomatology. Since there is such a paucity of direct research related to fibroids, conditions that are implicated in the causation of uterine fibroids and symptomatology that CAM treatments may or have been shown to make a difference are also considered.
