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

objectiveTo investigate the value of painless transvaginal four-dimensional hysterosalpingo contrast sonography (TV 4-D HyCoSy) in reducing venous intravasation and its influencing factors through a retrospective comparative study on conventional TV 4-D HyCoSy. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 451 patients were enrolled in this study from Jan. 2019 to Oct. 2021. There were 249 patients in the painless TV 4-D HyCoSy group and 202 patients in the conventional TV 4-D HyCoSy group. The incidence of venous intravasation and its related influencing factors were analyzed and compared between these two groups. The difficulty of image evaluation for the diagnosis was also compared.

resultsThere was no significant difference in the baseline characteristics between the painless group and the conventional group (p > 0.05). Compared with the conventional group, the painless group had a lower incidence of venous intravasation (16.9 vs. 24.8%; p = 0.039). Painless TV 4-D HyCoSy was more effective in reducing venous intravasation in patients with primary infertility (p = 0.032) without a history of pelvic surgery (p = 0.008) or ectopic pregnancy (p = 0.018). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that painless TV 4-D HyCoSy and endometrial thickness > 5 mm were protective factors for venous intravasation. Moreover, the diagnostic procedure was easier in the painless group than in the conventional group (p = 0.002).

conclusionsPainless TV 4D-HyCoSy may be an effective mode in reducing the incidence of venous intravasation and improving the diagnosis of patency of fallopian tubes.
