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.

Abstract

objectiveThis study was conducted at Swapna Health Care (a tertiary centre for endoscopy), to analyse the outcome of hysteroscopic resection of submucous fibroids in 125 symptomatic women. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 125 women were diagnosed with submucous fibroids between 1994 and 2017, 83 presented with AUB, 31 with infertility and four with RPL. Seven postmenopausal women had thickened endometrium on routine transvaginal ultrasonography, and hysteroscopy showed submucous fibroids.

resultsOut of 83 with AUB, 68 were premenopausal and 15 were postmenopausal. All these patients underwent submucous fibroid resection by hysteroscopy. Out of 83, 75 (90.4%) had total relief from AUB and did not need any further management. Only eight patients needed hysterectomy after submucous fibroid resection. Thirty-one patients came for infertility. Twenty-five patients followed infertility treatment with us after SMFR. 32% of our infertile patients conceived (8/25).

conclusionsSubmucous fibroid resection is a safe procedure, giving good results in symptomatic women with AUB and infertility. Hence, all gynaecologists should be trained in diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy and should be able to offer this option to their patients in the spectrum of choices available.
