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

The Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is a congenital disorder caused by the abnormal absence of paramesonephric ducts. The main characteristics of this syndrome include hypoplasia or aplasia of the uterus, absence of the cervix and upper part of vagina. Otherwise, ovaries and fallopian tubes have normal functions. A 9-year-old girl presented to the emergency department by acute abdominal pain. Based on a high probable diagnosis of ovarian torsion, surgical exploration was accomplished demonstrating rudimentary or aplastic uterus, hypoplasia of the left adnexa and torsion of the right ovary. In consideration of MRKH syndrome, further assessments were done and the diagnosis was confirmed. As this syndrome is rare and there is a probability of ovarian torsion caused by malformation of the ovarian ligament, physicians should be aware of this syndrome to diagnose it earlier and preserve the ovarian tissue.
