Laparoscopic myomectomy for posterior cervical myoma: authors' experience and strategy.
Article in American journal of translational research, 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
objectivesPosterior cervical myoma poses a challenge for gynecologic surgeons, especially in women who want to preserve their fertility. The objective of this study is to summarize our experience with and strategy for this difficult situation.
methodsBetween July 2019 and June 2021, 13 patients with posterior cervical myoma underwent laparoscopic myomectomy in our department. In addition to using the conventional strategy for laparoscopic myomectomy, other measures such as uterine suspension and preliminary exposure of vital structures, including the uterine artery and ureter, were implemented to enhance safety and improve efficacy. The perioperative outcomes for these patients were retrospectively evaluated.
resultsAll surgeries were completed successfully with no conversion to laparotomy. There were no intraoperative complications or needs for blood transfusion. Uterine suspension was performed in all cases, while preliminary exposure of the uterine artery and ureter was performed in nine cases (69.2%). Uterine artery ligation was necessary in two cases. The mean surgical duration was 78.5 ± 12.3 minutes, mean blood loss was 54.2 ± 11.9 mL, and the mean specimen weight was 171.5 ± 59.8 g. Histopathologic analysis revealed leiomyomas in all cases. The postoperative course and follow-up were uneventful.
conclusionBy uterine suspension and preliminary exposure of vital structures, including the uterine artery and ureter, laparoscopic myomectomy for posterior cervical myoma can be performed safely.
