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

aimRecurrence of adnexal torsion (rAT) is reported mainly in small series. Normal and small appearing ovaries are associated with an increased risk for rAT. Nevertheless, updated data of larger cohorts is lacking. We aimed to investigate the predictors for rAT in a cohort of women who had surgical intervention for primary adnexal torsion (pAT).

methodsA retrospective case-control study from a single institution between 2011 and 2020. Women with a primary occurrence of surgically proven adnexal torsion were included. We compared those who had experienced rAT to those who had not. Univariate and multivariate analysis were performed to study independent predictors for rAT.

resultsOverall, 358 women were included. Of those, 35 (9.8%) had a rAT. Women who experienced rAT were younger (mean age 26 vs. 30 years, p = 0.01). Women experiencing rAT had smaller mean ovarian cyst diameter in the pAT episode (42 vs. 59 mm. p < 0.001). Performance of laparoscopic detorsion was only associated with rAT (odds ration [OR] 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.13 [1.02-4.42], p = 0.03), while the performance of additional cystectomy was negatively associated with rAT (OR 95% CI 0.10 [0.01-0.79], p = 0.006). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that age ≤15 and smaller cyst diameter at pAT were independently associated with the risk for rAT (aOR 95% CI 5.0 [1.09-23.2] and 1.47 [1.08-2.0], for every 10 mm decrease in cyst diameter, respectively).

conclusionsAdolescents and pediatric females and women with smaller ovarian cysts at pAT are at higher risk for future recurrence of adnexal torsion.
