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

A 23-year-old patient with an asymptomatic anterior vaginal wall cyst was referred to gynecology for evaluation and treatment. Preoperative assessment with physical examination and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the pelvis was most consistent with Gartner's cyst. Following resection of the cyst wall, histologic evaluation demonstrated endometrial glands, hemosiderin-laden macrophages and inflammation, consistent with vaginal wall endometrioma. This case highlights challenges in the diagnosis of endometriosis in the vagina and in other rare locations, possible mechanisms of development, and proposed treatments.
