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
introductionHerlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome (HWWS) is characterized by uterine didelphys, unilateral cervical obstruction, and ipsilateral renal defects. Owing to its rarity, no standard surgical approach exists. PRESENTATION OF CASE: An 11-year-old girl with severe dysmenorrhea had a duplicated uterus, a right cervical hemorrhagic cyst, and right ipsilateral kidney agenesis, indicative of HWWS. As transvaginal surgery was challenging, we turned to laparoscopic surgery for abdominal cavity inspection and surgical assistance. A longitudinal incision was made on the right uterus, followed by inserting a catheter tube fixed to an intrauterine device (IUD) into the right cervical canal from the anterior wall of the right uterine horn. Subsequently, the right external cervical os was inverted to prevent restenosis. Postoperatively, the hemorrhagic cyst at the right cervix disappeared. The patient had no symptom recurrence 24 months after the surgery. DISCUSSION: The preoperative diagnosis for female genital malformations is complicated, and transvaginal manipulation is often difficult in adolescent girls. Laparoscopy is a valuable tool for evaluating female genital malformations, allowing for a thorough diagnosis and safe surgical treatment. In cases of female genital malformation with cervical obstruction, as in this case, reconstruction of the uterine cervix is important to prevent restenosis after surgery.
conclusionIn female genital malformations, laparoscopy provides a comprehensive evaluation of the malformation, assisting in a precise diagnosis and safe surgical treatment. Insertion of the catheter tube with IUD into the uterus and reconstruction of the cervix contribute to preventing restenosis.
