Prevalence and risk factors for chronic endometritis in patients with adenomyosis and infertility: a retrospective cohort study.
Review in BMC women's health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundTo explore the incidence of chronic endometritis (CE) in patients with infertility and different forms of adenomyosis and analyze potential high-risk factors for infection.
methodsThis retrospective cohort study included 154 patients with infertility in the Liuzhou Maternity and Child Healthcare Hospital. Among them, 77 patients with adenomyosis were divided into four subgroups based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): internal, exterior, intramural, and full-thickness. Meanwhile, 77 patients did not have adenomyosis. Hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy were performed in the proliferative phase. The main outcome measures were the morphology of the endometrium, syndecan-1 (CD138) immunohistochemical staining, clinical characteristics, and prevalence of CE in the adenomyosis subgroups.
resultsIn comparison to the non-adenomyosis group, the adenomyosis group had significantly higher body mass index (BMI) and CA125 levels. The menstrual cycle in the adenomyosis group was significantly shorter, and menarche was significantly earlier. In comparison to the non-adenomyosis group, the adenomyosis group had a significantly higher diagnostic rate of CE (75.3% vs. 46.8% according to hysteroscopy and 74.0% vs. 33.8% according to histopathology, both with p < .050). The incidence of CE was significantly lower in patients with internal adenomyosis when compared with the other three subgroups. Increased BMI contributed to a higher risk of CE.
conclusionsThe prevalence of CE was significantly higher in patients with adenomyosis and infertility. The differences in the incidence of CE are closely associated with the classification of adenomyosis. When patients with infertility are diagnosed with adenomyosis, it is recommended to identify the subtype and screen for endometritis.
