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: To characterize adnexal lesions detected in patients who had undergone previous hysterectomy with one or both ovaries conserved, and to define the clinical, pathologic, and surgical characteristics of the adnexal lesions in these patients. Material and Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted on patients who had undergone a previous abdominal hysterectomy with one or both adnexa preserved and who had subsequently presented with an adnexal lesion. Characteristics of lesions, operative, and pathologic findings in patients who required a re-operation were noted. Results: One hundred thirty-seven patients presented with an adnexal lesion after hysterectomy. Of the 137 patients, 71 (51.8%) had undergone a re-operation (re-operated group), the rest of the patients (n=66, 48.1%) remained on follow-up (follow-up group) in whom the lesion disappeared during follow-up period. Adnexal lesions that were re-operated were significantly larger (p<0.001), more complicated (p=0.04), and had more septations (p=0.01) than in the follow-up group. The origin of the adnexal lesion was confirmed as the ovary in 59 (83%) patients, and as the peritoneum in 8 (11.2%) patients during surgery. All of the adnexal lesions arising after hysterectomy and required a re-operation were confirmed to be benign. Conclusion: Almost half of the lesions detected after hysterectomy disappeared during the follow-up period. The adnexal lesions that were re-operated were more symptomatic, larger, and had more complicated lesions. All lesions that were re-operated were found to be benign, mostly originating from the ovary.
