Endometriosis and Adolescence: The Impact of Dysmenorrhea.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 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
Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of premenopausal women worldwide. Despite its impact on quality of life, the delay in diagnosing this chronic disease is well known. Many patients with endometriosis report having suffered from dysmenorrhea and chronic pelvic pain in adolescence or at a young age. However, this painful symptom is often highly underestimated and considered a normal and transient symptom in young women. The real prevalence of endometriosis in adolescence remains uncertain. Some authors recently described at least one ultrasound feature of endometriosis in 13.3% of a general population of adolescent girls, which increased to 35.3% in young girls with severe dysmenorrhea. Dysmenorrhea is classified as primary dysmenorrhea or secondary dysmenorrhea. Primary dysmenorrhea is defined as a menstrual pain without organic disease, while secondary dysmenorrhea is defined as a menstrual pain associated with organic pelvic pathology. Since endometriosis represents the main cause of secondary dysmenorrhea in adolescents and young women, it is important to determine whether the patient has primary dysmenorrhea or additional suggestive symptoms related to endometriosis. Endometriosis in adolescent patients is a challenging problem with clinical and pathological differences compared with its presentation in premenopausal women. Adolescents and young women with dysmenorrhea and painful symptoms that suggest endometriosis should be referred to dedicated endometriosis centers for an early diagnosis and appropriate medical and surgical management. This paper aims to describe the role of dysmenorrhea in adolescents and the management of these young patients to confirm or exclude endometriosis.
