Effects of hysteroscopic surgery combined with progesterone therapy on fertility and prognosis in patients with early endometrial cancer and atypical endometrial hyperplasia or endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia: a meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Archives of gynecology and obstetrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThis meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effects of hysteroscopic surgery combined with progesterone therapy on fertility and prognosis in patients with early endometrial cancer (EC), atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH), or endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN).
methodsStudies on hysteroscopic surgery combined with progesterone therapy for patients with early-stage EC, AEH, or EIN were searched from Embase, Web of Science, PubMed, and Cochrane Library databases. The included studies contained one or more of the following outcome variables: pregnancy rate, live birth rate, complete response (CR) rate, and recurrence rate after conservative treatment. The meta-analysis was performed using Stata.
results13 pieces of literature containing 239 patients with EC and 199 patients with AEH/EIN were included. As per the results of meta-analysis, the pregnancy rates of EC patients and AEH/EIN patients were 49% (95% CI 33-65%) and 47% (95% CI 31-64%), respectively, and the live birth rates were 45% (95% CI 32-58%) and 44% (95% CI 34-54%), respectively. CR rates of EC patients and AEH/EIN patients were 90% (95% CI 85-94%) and 100% (95% CI 97-100%), respectively, and the disease recurrence rates were 17% (95% CI 8-28%) and 11% (95% CI 3-23%), respectively.
conclusionHysteroscopic surgery combined with progesterone was linked to an improved overall response rate, reduced disease recurrence rate, and increased pregnancy and live birth rates among patients with EC and AEH/EIN.
