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
Background: Although traditional multi-incision laparoscopic surgery is minimally invasive, it can still leave surgical scars on the lower abdomen. This study reports a modified Vecchietti-laparoendoscopic single-site (MVLESS) procedure using self-made instruments to create a neovagina for Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome (MRKHS) and to determine the efficacy and safety. Methods: We conducted a retrospective comparative cohort study analysis of the clinical data from MRKHS patients treated in the Department of Difficult Gynecological Disease at Xi'an People's Hospital between January 2010 and December 2020.Women who were diagnosed with MRKHS and underwent a MVLESS procedure using self-made instruments to create a new vagina were selected as the study group (n=14). Patients who underwent a traditional multi-incision Vecchietti (TMV) procedure were selected as the control group (n=22). All participants in both groups were required to complete a Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and Female Genital Self-Image Scale (FGSIS) questionnaire. Results: All patients in the study group were diagnosed with type I MRKHS and 3 (21.43%) were sexually active. Twenty-one patients in the control group were diagnosed with type I (95.45%) MRKHS, 1 (4.55%) had type II MRKHS (absent left kidney), and 6 (27.27%) were sexually active. The neovaginas in both groups were wide with good elasticity, softness, smoothness, and lubrication. There were no significant differences in operative time (37±6 Conclusions: The MVLESS procedure is a simple, safe, and minimally invasive procedure that provides an anatomical and functional neovagina for MRKHS patients. It is an alternative method for creating a neovagina to achieve satisfactory anatomic and sexual function. However, it is still a difficult problem to solve fertility problems for patients with congenital absence of vagina.
