Comparing ovarian reserve parameters after laparoscopic endometrioma resection in the follicular vs. luteal phase: a prospective cohort study.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03484546 (Optimum Menstrual Cycle Time for Endometrioma Excision), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 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.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate whether performing laparoscopic endometrioma surgery in the follicular or luteal phase affects changes in ovarian reserve. Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted in a university-affiliated hospital. A total of 55 women who underwent unilateral laparoscopic endometrioma removal were included in the study. Of these, 28 were in the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle (follicular group), and 27 were in the luteal phase (luteal group). The primary outcomes were the rates of decreased anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) levels and antral follicle counts (AFC) 6 months after the surgery, which were compared between the groups. Results: The groups were similar in patient characteristics and endometrioma sizes. AMH levels and AFCs were significantly lower in the post-operative 6th month compared with their pre-operative values ( Conclusion: Performing laparoscopic endometrioma surgery, whether in the follicular or luteal phase, does not seem to affect the changes in the ovarian reserve.
