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

aimThe study aimed to identify the relationships between metabolic syndrome indicators and BMI in women with endometriosis.

designA retrospective observational study design was utilized to analyse secondary data from a longitudinal dataset.

methodsA total of 281,810 women diagnosed with endometriosis and aged 15 through 49 were drawn from the National Health Insurance Service-National Health Screening Cohort data of the Republic of Korea from the year 2009 to 2016. Body mass index (BMI) and five indicators of metabolic syndrome were extracted. Descriptive statistics, Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test, chi-square test and Cochran-Armitage test were used.

resultsYearly changes in abnormal waist circumference, elevated fasting blood sugar and abnormally low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol were statistically significant. The risk groups of these indicators all showed statistically significant differences according to BMI. The proportions of women with abnormal findings for all indicators significantly increased as BMI increased.
