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

The association between lichen planus (LP) with subsequent hematometra and acute urinary retention (AUR) is quite rare, and few cases reported that association. In such cases, if the patient is left untreated, then possible kidney injury and bladder wall rupture may arise from that retention. In this case, we reported a patient who is known to have a background history of long-standing LP that presented with a history and features suggestive of AUR and was found to be caused by hematometra on an ultrasound scan.
