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

Background: Cervicitis is a prevalent gynecologic disease, which does not usually respond to conventional treatments. Long-term cervicitis can cause serious health problems such as inflammation, infertility, and cancer. Henna oil, an herbal product in Persian medicine, is recommended for uterine diseases like cervicitis. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Henna oil as a vaginal suppository in combination with an antibiotic regimen in the treatment of cervicitis. Materials and Methods: This randomized placebo-controlled trial, included 92 non-menopausal women with cervicitis at the Baqaipur Clinic of Shahid Sadoughi hospital in Yazd and the Persian Medicine Health Center in Ardakan, Yazd, Iran. Participants were further divided into either the Henna oil vaginal suppository group or the placebo group (n = 46/each group). During the study, the antibiotic treatment was administered to both groups. Cervicitis symptoms were compared between the groups and within each group. Results: Of 92 included individuals, 41 in each group completed the study. Results revealed that significant differences were observed in some outcomes, including vaginal discharge (p Conclusion: Findings supported that the vaginal suppository of Henna oil in combination with antibiotic therapy could be effective in the improvement of clinical symptoms of cervicitis regardless of its pathology.
