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

Uterus transplantation is a new treatment for patients with absolute uterine infertility that is conducted in order to enable them to carry their own pregnancy. One of the limitations for its development is donor availability. Some transgender males undergo a hysterectomy in the gender-affirming surgery process, and might be interested in donating their uterus for transplantation. In this manuscript, we report the results of a survey designed to determine the attitudes of such individuals regarding donation of their uterus for this purpose. Over 32 years (January 1989-January 2021), 348 biological women underwent hysterectomy at our hospital as part of gender-affirming surgery. The survey was sent to 212 of the 348 prospective participants (for 136, we lacked postal or email addresses). Among the 212 surveys sent, we obtained responses from 94 individuals (44%): 83 (88.3%) stated they would agree to donate, of whom 44 would do so for altruism, 23 for the usefulness of the gesture and 16 out of understanding of the desire to have a child; 63 (75.5%) wanted to know the recipient and 45 (54.2%) wanted to know the result of the donation. According to this survey, a high proportion of transgender males surveyed would be interested in donating their uterus for uterus transplantation.
