Not Having Been Breastfed May Protect Chinese Women From Developing Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis: Results From Subgroup Analyses of the FEELING Study.
Article in Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundThis study aimed to investigate potential factors, especially early-life exposures, associated with endometrioma (OMA) and/or deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) in Chinese women.
methodsThis is a subgroup analyses of the FEELING study, which was a case-control study that investigated the clinical, lifestyle, and environmental factors associated with OMA and/or DIE in China, Russia, and France. In this subgroup analysis, the data for the Chinese participants were further analyzed using logistic regression model.
resultsAll women (N = 546) had fully completed the questionnaire. The mean age of the participants was 31.8 (range: 18-41) years. Univariable analysis showed that noncyclic chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea intensity class, and whether breastfed during infancy were distributed differently between patients with OMA or DIE and those with no endometriosis (non-EM) or superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SUP;
conclusionThis is the first study suggesting that not having been breastfed might protect against DIE in Chinese women.
