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

Modern hysteroscopy represents a copernical revolution for the diagnosis and treatment of uterine pathology. Traditionally hysteroscopy was performed in a conventional operation room under general anaesthesia (in-patient hysteroscopy). Recent advances in technology and techniques made hysteroscopy less painful and invasive allowing it to be performed in an ambulatory setting (outpatient hysteroscopy). The so called "see & treat hysteroscopy", has reduced the distinction between diagnostic and operative procedure, thus, introducing the concept of a single procedure in which the operative part is perfectly integrated within the diagnostic work-up. The "digital hysteroscopic clinic" (DHC) on the other hand combines ultrasound with hysteroscopy, ideal for a one stop diagnostic procedure and surgical approach, outlasting laparoscopy with ultrasound, for increased surgical performance in outpatient settings. The aim of this paper is to describe the "state of the art" in an outpatient hysteroscopy setting.
