Morphometric properties of the fallopian canal: comparison of two nations with different ethnic origins.
Article in Surgical and radiologic anatomy : SRA, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeTo determine the widths of fallopian canal segments (labyrinthine segment, geniculate ganglion, tympanic segment mastoid segment and stylomastoid foramen), in two nations with different ethnic origins, and to analyze the differences in between.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed temporal computerized tomographies of 102 individuals including 38 Turks and 64 Syrians. The widths of right and left labyrinthine (LS), tympanic (TS), mastoid (MS), geniculate ganglion (GG) and stylomastoid foramen (SF) segments of the fallopian canal were measured.
resultsThe narrowest segment was LS (right: 1.04 ± 0.23 mm, left: 1.03 ± 0.22 mm) and the widest segment was SF (right: 1.82 ± 0.41 mm, left: 1.85 ± 0.35 mm). From the widest to the narrowest, the widths of the FC segments were sorted as SF > GG > MS > TS > LS. The widths of the fallopian canal segments were similar between right and left sides, and between males and females (p > 0.05). Our results indicated that both right and left GG were significantly wider in Turks (p < 0.001 for both), however right LS (p < 0.001) and left TS (p = 0.005) were significantly wider in Syrian refugees. Two groups did not show any differences for the widths of other FC segments (p > 0.05).
conclusionsNations of different ethnic origins may have differences concerning the widths of some segments of the fallopian canal. Further studies with a larger sample size including clinical data of the patients are needed to clarify our findings, and to determine whether these differences have any clinical implications.
