Prolapsing vaginal fibroepithelial polyp.
Article in BMJ case reports, 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
Although uncommon, vaginal fibroepithelial polyps can present as prolapsing vaginal tissue, causing discomfort and anxiety. Surgical excision of the polyps can provide a minimally invasive solution. In this case, we describe a nulliparous female in late adolescence who presented for evaluation of tissue protruding through the vagina. On exam, a 5×4 cm fibroepithelial polyp was extending from the distal posterior vagina on a broad stalk. Successful transperineal surgical excision was performed. Fibroepithelial polyps, although uncommon, can be a cause for prolapsing vaginal tissue and should be part of the differential diagnosis, especially in patients who have no risk factors for pelvic organ prolapse. They can be excised vaginally, alleviating symptoms and distress. Because they sometimes recur, continued surveillance with gynaecological exams is recommended.
