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 evaluate the relationship between genetic haplotypes associated with celiac disease (Human Leucocyte Antigen [HLA] DQ2 and DQ8) with the diagnosis, clinical presentation, and location of endometriosis in Brazilian women.

methodA retrospective cross-sectional study, was conducted in a Tertiary hospital. PATIENTS: Women aged 18-50 years who underwent HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 haplotype analysis.

interventionThe patients were divided into endometriosis and control groups and evaluated for symptoms; endometriosis location, American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) stage, and the presence of anti-tissue transglutaminase IgA (anti-TgA), HLA-DQ2, and HLA-DQ8 markers.

resultsA total of 434 consecutive patients with (n = 315) and without (n = 119) endometriosis were included. Pain and infertility were more frequent in the endometriosis group than in the control group. The presence of HLA-DQ2, HLA-DQ8, and anti-TgA was similar between both groups. The presence of HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 markers did not differ based on age, pain symptoms, ASRM stage, or endometriosis location.

conclusionAlthough there are similarities in inflammatory markers and pathophysiology between celiac disease and endometriosis, this study found no significant associations in the presence of HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 haplotypes and endometriosis.
