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

Female genital tuberculosis is an important cause of infertility in developing countries where tuberculosis is endemic. However, the true incidence of genital tuberculosis is unknown because symptoms and signs are usually minimal, making its detection difficult. We herein report a case of subfertility due to endometrial tuberculosis. The patient had primary infertility and planned to utilize assisted reproductive technology because of bilateral fallopian tube obstruction. She underwent hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy. The biopsy revealed epithelioid cells and multinuclear giant cells in the interstitium, and tuberculosis of the endometrium could not be excluded. Chest computed tomography showed secondary pulmonary tuberculosis in the upper left lung. A tuberculin test was positive, and a sputum culture of
