ACUM, an easily underdiagnosed cause of dysmenorrhea-A case report.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
This report described three cases with long-term severe dysmenorrhea, and these cases were referred to our department for medical help. The diagnosis of accessory cavitated uterine malformation (ACUM) was considered based on symptoms and ultrasound/MRI findings. Moreover, a combined approach involving hysteroscopic surgery and laparoscopic surgery was undertaken, and no complications occurred during surgery and in the post-operative period. It is important to consider ACUM in patients with severe dysmenorrhea that does not respond to medical management. Surgery is the most effective treatment for this anomaly.
