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: Ectopic pregnancy (EP) occurs when a fertilized ovum is implanted outside the uterine cavity. Its incidence is 2% of all pregnancies and is known to decrease fertility. This study aimed to measure pregnancy rates after EP, identify the various parameters influencing pregnancy, and compare these variables in women with and without a history of EP, as well as determine in which medical facilities women with EP seek medical help. Methods: The data was extracted from the National Health Insurance Research Database during 2000-2013. The study group included of women with a history of one EP (study group) and women without EP (control group). The chi-square/Fisher exact test was performed for categorical variables, and t-tests were used for continuous variables. Results: The EP group had a higher cumulative pregnancy rate (41.55%) than the control group (37.14 %), and a 1.16 times higher rate in developing pregnancy ( Conclusions: Fecundability after EP was lower at the beginning but increased at long-term follow-up.
