Robot-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy for endometrial cancer in a patient with Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome, a rare Mullerian duct anomaly, includes a triad of uterine didelphys, obstructed haemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis. A 58-year-old woman with Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome, reported of recurrent genital bleeding for 9 years, was finally diagnosed with endometrial cancer. She had a history of vaginal septum resection and nephrectomy of atrophic right kidney. MRI demonstrated uterine didelphys, a tumour filling the left uterus and a cyst on the right lateral side of the uterus. Robot-assisted hysterectomy, including bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy, was performed. As the cyst communicated with the right cervix, but not with the urinary tract, a Gartner duct cyst was diagnosed. Uncertain diagnosis and delay of treatment in endometrial cancer may occur in patients with Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome. We should preoperatively fully evaluate the anatomy of the uterus and surrounding tissues and plan surgical procedures, especially in patients with urogenital malformations.
