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
Scar endometriosis is a rare condition highly related to history of abdominal surgery. Due to the low incidence, it is often misdiagnosed. A woman presented to the surgery outpatient clinic with a mass near her C-section scar. Physical examination and ultrasound suggested Incisional Hernia while intraoperative finding revealed a mass suggestive of endometriosis which later confirmed by pathology examination. Scar endometriosis is a common subtype of extra-pelvic endometriosis. Iatrogenic transplantation is speculated to be its etiopathogenesis. Preoperatively, it is challenging to differentiate endometriosis from another abdominal masses. The definitive diagnosis is based on laparoscopy or surgery with histological verification. Chronic pain is complex and often involves multiple factors beyond simply a diagnosis of endometriosis, but it is important to think of endometriosis on women patients presenting with a mass and cyclic pain with history of surgery involving a large amount of endometrial cell.
