Risk Factors Associated with Perineal and Vaginal Lacerations and Vaginal Removal in Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy.
Article in Gynecology and minimally invasive therapy. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Objectives: This study aimed to identify risk factors associated with perineal and vaginal lacerations related to vaginal removal during total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively assessed 134 patients who underwent TLH, of whom 44 (32.8%) had vaginal lacerations. Results: Univariate analysis revealed that for patients with myomas and adenomyosis, gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist use and myomas with a transverse diameter of ≥5 cm were significant risk factors, while multiparity (vaginal delivery) was a protective factor for perineal and vaginal lacerations. Moreover, multivariate analysis indicated that multiparity was the only statistically significant protective factor. For cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, endometrial cancer, and endometrial hyperplasia, only a uterine transverse diameter of ≥5 cm was a significant risk factor for perineal or vaginal lacerations. Conclusion: For patients with large myomas, multiple vaginal delivery was a protective factor, and in patients with normal-sized uteri, a uterine transverse diameter of ≥5 cm was a risk factor for perineal or vaginal lacerations.
