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

backgroundThe increasing global prevalence of cesarean scar endometriosis necessitates a thorough understanding of the risk factors for postoperative recurrence, as this is crucial for developing preventive strategies and informed decision-making.

objectiveTo obtain insight into the clinical risk factors for postoperative recurrence of cesarean scar endometriosis following open lesion resection. STUDY

designThe cohort for this study comprised 272 women, including 26 patients with postoperative recurrence and 246 without recurrence. Various parameters, including baseline characteristics, preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative conditions, and follow-up information, were analyzed. A comparison of these parameters was made between patients with and without postoperative recurrence. Time-to-recurrence analyses were conducted using Cox's univariate and multivariate proportional hazard analyses, the Kaplan-Meier method, and the log-rank test.

resultsThe results revealed significant differences between patients with and without postoperative recurrence in terms of visual analog scale for abdominal pain (

conclusionThe study highlights that the visual analog scale for abdominal pain ≥4 is a risk factor for the recurrence of cesarean scar endometriosis after open lesion resection. Furthermore, the surgical method of integrated excision was identified as a protective factor.
