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
Background Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is one of the most common problems encountered in gynaecological practice. Defective endometrial angiogenesis has been implicated in various benign and malignant disorders of the endometrium. Aim This study aims to assess morphometry of endometrial glands and blood vessels in patients with AUB. Material and methods This is a one year retrospective cross sectional analysis of endometrial samples received with the diagnosis of AUB in reproductive age group. All samples were routinely processed and stained. Sections were analysed for morphometry of blood vessels and endometrial glands. Results A total of 374 cases were included. Most common histological group was proliferative followed by secretory phase. A significant difference was noted in mean vascular density, diameter, mitotic scores and height of glandular epithelium in different benign and malignant groups. Conclusion This study highlights the fact that glandular and vascular morphometry can be used to differentiate between various proliferative disorders of the endometrium. In the current era of new anti-angiogenic therapies, endometrial angiogenesis and changes in vascular morphology can be targeted, thus improving treatment modalities and patient care.
