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

To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of adenomyomectomy using "H" type incision combined with Mirena (LNG-IUS) in the treatment of adenomyosis.A total of 57 women with adenomyosis who underwent adenomyomectomy using "H" type incision combined with LNG-IUS were selected. Visual analog scale (VAS), menstrual flow, uterine volume, serum CA125 levels and hemoglobin amounts were compared before and after the surgery. Meanwhile, postoperative pregnancy, adverse reactions, and recurrence were observed.VAS score, menstrual flow, uterine volume, and serum CA125 levels in 53 patients were significantly reduced after surgery (P < . 001). Moreover, statistical significances were obtained for VAS score at 13 and 6 months, menstrual flow at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months, uterine volume at 1, 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months and CA125 levels at 1 and 3 months (P < .05). Of the 5 patients with fertility requirements, 1 became pregnant after IVF-ET, progressed to preterm, and delivered healthy twins. Among all related adverse reactions, amenorrhea was the most common (n = 20, 37.7%). There were no cases of LNG-IUS removal, ectopia, expulsion, and incarceration, except in 2 patients due to pregnancy, 1 due to uterine bleeding, and 1 due to Mirena perforation from incision of the uterine fundus. All patients showed no relapse.Adenomyomectomy using "H" type incision combined with Mirena constitutes a novel and effective conservative surgical procedure for adenomyosis treatment.
