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

Paraurethral endometriosis is an extremely rare condition. To the best of our knowledge, only seven cases with details on variable risk factors have been reported in the English literature. Herein, we present the case of a third nulliparous patient described in the literature at the time of diagnosis. A 30-year-old woman presented with mild urinary symptoms. A well-defined 2.3 cm paraurethral cystic lesion was found on clinical examination, and MRI findings were suggestive of hemorrhagic content, with no evidence of pelvic endometriosis. Complete surgical excision was performed, and the patient's symptoms improved. The patient experienced no recurrence for 10 months postoperatively. The histopathological findings were suggestive of endometriosis. These findings might indicate that embryonic remnants are possible causes of the pathogenesis of paraurethral endometriosis.
