Familial occurrence of concomitant imperforate hymen and transverse vaginal septum: a case report.
Article in The Pan African medical journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The imperforate hymen and transverse vaginal septum are female reproductive tract abnormalities. Their concurrent occurrence is rare. So far, no manifestation of both anomalies within the same family has been reported in the literature. We report the first familial case of two sisters having both mentioned abnormalities. Our patient was the youngest sister of a 14-year-old, who presented with cyclic lower abdominal pain. Clinical and imaging examinations showed an imperforate hymen with hematometrocolpos. In addition, the surgery confirmed a low transverse vaginal septum, which was resected using a virginity-preserving procedure. In conclusion, the presence of both mentioned abnormalities between siblings reflects a potential genetic etiology, also in order to avoid late diagnostics of such anomalies, the imperforate hymen must be screened in the birth room.
