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

purposeSeptate uterus is the most common congenital uterine malformation. This retrospective cohort study compared clinical outcomes and second-look hysteroscopy findings in patients with complete and incomplete septate uteri after septoplasty.

methodsWe reviewed the medical records of patients with a septate uterus who underwent hysteroscopic septoplasty and second-look hysteroscopy at the West China Second University Hospital between September 2013 and September 2021. Information regarding pregnancy outcomes was collected through telephone interviews. The independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, Pearson's chi-square test, and Fisher's exact test were used to explore the differences between the complete and incomplete septate uterus groups.

resultsA total of 64 patients were enrolled in this study. There was no significant difference in intrauterine adhesion (IUA) rates (16.7% and 32.1%), pregnancy rates (44.1% and 42.9%), term delivery rates (35.3% and 32.1%), premature delivery rates (2.9% and 0), placenta previa rates (2.9% and 3.6%), placenta implantation/adhesion rates (5.9% and 3.6%), and premature rupture of membranes rates (2.9% and 0) between the complete and the incomplete group after hysteroscopic septoplasty (P > 0.05). Endometrial polyps in the septate uterus were common, with an incidence of 33.3% and 25% in the complete and incomplete groups, respectively (P > 0.05).

conclusionThe pregnancy outcomes of complete and incomplete septate uteri after hysteroscopic septoplasty were similar. There was no statistical difference in IUAs after surgery. Different treatment strategies may not be required for complete or incomplete septate uteri.
