Correlation between Triclosan (TCS) exposure and endometriosis.

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
Objective: To study the correlation of Triclosan (TCS) exposure with typing and staging of endometriosis, and with other potential influencing factors. Methods: This was a retrospective study. Thirty two patients that were diagnosed with endometriosis by laparoscopy or surgery in Taicang First People's Hospital from May 2020 to December 2021 were enrolled in the endometriosis group, and patients who were confirmed free of endometriosis by surgeries for other purposes during the same period were enrolled as the control group. All blood samples were tested twice in two different vials. The association of TCS exposure level with occurrence, staging, typing of endometriosis, and income of the patients were analyzed. Results: Patients with endometriosis had significantly higher TCS exposure levels than the control group. TCS exposure level in patients with endometriosis was positively correlated with patient income), and was significantly higher in patients with Stage-IV endometriosis than in those with Stage-III and II diseases. TCS exposure levels showed no significant difference among patients with ovarian type, ovarian + peritoneal type, and deep nodular type endometriosis TCS exposure level in patients with endometriosis was positively correlated with the staging of the disease. TCS exposure was highly positively correlated with the staging of the disease in patients with ovarian type endometriosis and in patients with deep nodular endometriosis, but there's no such correlation in patients with ovarian + peritoneal type endometriosis. Conclusion: TCS exposure level in endometriosis patients was higher than that in normal women, and is positively correlated with endometriosis staging and income of the patients.
