Preventive therapeutic options for postoperative recurrence of ovarian endometrioma: gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist with or without levonorgestrel intrauterine system insertion.

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
purposeHere, we compared endometrioma recurrence rates in patients who have undergone a laparoscopic cystectomy and treated with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) alone or a GnRHa combined with a levonogestrel intrauterine system (LND-IUS).
methodsWe enrolled endometrioma patients who underwent laparoscopic cyst enucleation and divided them into two groups according to postoperative management: GnRHa alone and GnRHa in combination with LND-IUS. We compared preoperative history, perioperative parameters, postoperative endometrioma recurrence, and symptoms between these two groups.
resultsA total of 320 patients were included in the final analysis. With a median 84.6 months of follow-up, we detected significant differences between the two groups with respect to age at surgery (31.6 ± 4.8 vs. 37.6 ± 4.2 years, χ
conclusionsCombination treatment of GnRHa and LNG-IUS exhibited superior pain relief and recurrence prevention among endometrioma patients after fertility-sparing surgery. Thus, combination treatment is a preferable long-term option for patients without intent for pregnancy in the near future.
