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: Women are more at risk for developing long-term symptoms after a COVID-19 infection. Only limited data are available for patients with coexisting endometriosis and/or menstrual pain symptoms. Study Design: A total of 840 premenopausal women with menstrual pain and/or endometriosis were included in this observational cross-sectional study using an online survey platform. Results: A total of 840 women with menstrual pain (mean age 30.7 ± 6.9, 15-54 years) were studied. Of these, 714 (84.2%) had a COVID-19 infection, 123 did not (14.5%). A total of 312 subjects had acute COVID-19 (AC) with symptoms ≤4 weeks (43.7%), 132 (18.5%) developed postacute COVID-19 syndrome (PC), and 88 (12.3%) had " Conclusion: Subjects with SCE had a twofold increased risk of LC (in comparison to subjects with nonconfirmed endometriosis menstrual pain). In patients with SCE concomitant diagnosis of depression or anxiety disorder further twice-fold increased risk of LC. Further studies are needed if it is possible to reduce LC risk by improving the treatment of those secondary diagnoses and whether the type of endometriosis treatment can reduce LC occurrence (holistic, coanalgetic, hormonal).
