The Comparison of Life Quality between Ultrasound-Guided High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound and Laparoscopic Myomectomy for the Treatment of Uterine Fibroids.
Article in Computational and mathematical methods in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. 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
Objective: This study is aimed at comparing the uterine fibroids patients' postoperative living quality between ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and laparoscopic myomectomy. Materials and Methods: A total of 164 patients were included with uterine fibroids who underwent laparoscopic myomectomy and HIFU in Cangzhou Central Hospital from September 2020 to November 2021. This study divided these objects into HIFU group and laparoscopic group, and both groups were followed up 6 months after surgery. After obtaining the results, Uterine Fibroid Symptom and health-related Quality Of Life questionnaire (UFS-QOL) and 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) were performed before and after treatment to assess patient outcome. Results: After treatments, the living quality in both groups was significantly improved compared with that before surgery, which had statistical significant ( Conclusion: In comparison with laparoscopic myomectomy, ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound could improve the life quality of patients more effectively than traditional laparoscopic myomectomy and was helpful to the recovery and prognosis of uterine fibroids after treatment. The outcomes will provide a reference for clinicians to select a more appropriate treatment for uterine fibroids.
