Clinicopathological characteristics and imaging findings to identify adenomyosis-related symptoms.

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
purposeThe study aims to identify the clinicopathological risk factors and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging findings for adenomyosis-related symptoms, including menorrhagia, dysmenorrhea, and infertility.
methodsThis was an observation-based cross-sectional study using data from the adenomyosis cohort study. The authors evaluated the clinicopathological variables and various MR imaging findings.
resultsTwo hundred twenty patients with histologically confirmed adenomyosis were included in this study. Multivariate analysis showed that a middle/retroflexed uterus and adenomyosis lesions of 21 mm or more were significant independent predictors of dysmenorrhea. The history of dysmenorrhea and the maximum length from the cervix to the uterine fundus ≥103 mm were independent risk factors of menorrhagia. One of the key factors associated with non-infertility included the absence of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and/or superficial peritoneal disease (SUP).
conclusionsThis study identified clinicopathological risk factors and imaging findings associated with adenomyosis-related symptoms. The maximum length from the cervix to the uterine fundus and adenomyosis lesion thickness are independent predictors for the presence of menorrhagia and dysmenorrhea, respectively. Infertility may be associated with the coexistence of endometriosis rather than adenomyosis itself. This result is from an analysis of a small number of infertility patients and requires further study.
