Clinical characteristics, treatment status and complications in women with tube ovarian abscess and endometriosis: a retrospective study.
Article in BMC women's health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundThe aim of our present study was to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment status and complications in women with endometriosis (EM) and tube ovarian abscess (TOA) to determine the possible association between TOA and EM.
methodsMedical records were used to analyze the clinical characteristics, treatment and complications. Twenty women who were diagnosed with TOA with EM were compared with 93 women diagnosed as having TOA without EM between January, 2008 and December, 2018.
resultsIn this study, TOA patients with EM were significantly more likely to have a lower age range (20-39 years) than the non-EM group [11/20 (55.0%) vs 27/93 (29.0%)]. In addition, TOA patients with EM were associated with a significantly lower rate of parity [11/20 (55.0%) vs 75/93 (80.6%)], higher rates of infertility [8/20(40%) vs 0/93(0%)] and a significantly lower incidence of elevated blood platelet counts [5/20 (25%) vs 43/93 (46.2%)]. Furthermore, women with EM had greater blood loss (347 ± 445.77 vs 204.67 ± 289.46) and an increased complication rate [3/20(15%) vs 0/93(0%)]. Among the 3 patients who had complications in the EM group, 2 patients had septic shock and 1 patient had intestinal obstruction. And 1 case who had septic shock followed by IVF treatment. There was no significance difference on other factors.
conclusionsThe present study indicated that EM did not increase the difficulty and time of treatment in patients with TOA, but increased bleeding during surgery and serious complications. It is suggested that doctors should pay more attention to postoperative treatment and nursing in women with TOA and EM, especially those who have a history of recent infertility treatment and related procedures.
