Factors influencing treatment decisions in HIFU treatment of adenomyosis: A retrospective study.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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: To explore the influencing factors of decision-making in patients with adenomyosis, who are receiving high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment. Methods: A total of 776 patients with adenomyosis were enrolled into HIFU group (241 cases) and hysterectomy group (535 cases) according to the treatment methods. The general data, clinical symptoms, marital and childbearing history, and economic status were compared between the two groups, and factors with Results: The average age of the patients in the HIFU group was 39.1 ± 5.2 years, which was lower than that in the hysterectomy group, which was 45.1 ± 3.9 years ( Conclusion: 31-40 years old, fertility desire, dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia, anemia and dizziness and fatigue were the influencing factors for patients to choose HIFU treatment. HIFU therapy has emerged as a new option for patients with adenomyosis as an alternative to hysterectomy.
