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

objectiveTo identify the prevalence and risk factors for chronic endometritis (CE) with tubal factors and the correlation between chronic endometritis and tubal factors among infertile populations.

methodA total of 52 patients with chronic endometritis (CE group) who underwent laparoscopy and hysteroscopic surgery were recruited between July 2020 and December 2021. A total of 38 patients without chronic endometritis (non-CE group) were included as a control. Patients with endometriosis and intra-uterine abnormalities were excluded. Endometrial samples were collected during surgery for CD138 immunohistochemistry staining for the diagnosis of CE. Preoperative information (including age, reproductive health characteristics, previous medical and surgical history), intra-operative information (including the patency of the fallopian tube, the presence of hydrosalpinx, score and the grade of tubal lesion condition) and post-operative information (counts of CD138-positive HPF in the endometrial specimen) were collected.

resultA multivariate analysis revealed that tubal factors with unilateral or bilateral occlusion were significantly higher in the CE group (OR 3.066, 95% CI 1.020-9.213,

conclusionCE was closely related to the blockage of fallopian tubes and hydrosalpinx. The severity degree of the fallopian lesion condition was associated with inflammation of the endometrium.
