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

backgroundThis study aimed to explore a novel and effective modified technique for the improvement in labia minora hypertrophy.

methodsFrom January 2020 to December 2022, 25 patients with labia minora hypertrophy underwent surgical treatment using a modified mucosal advancement flap combined with a de-epithelialized mucosal flap for labia minora reduction. Postoperative follow-up ranged from 3 to 12 months.

resultsNo hematoma or other adverse complications were observed in all 25 patients. All patients achieved good recovery and were satisfied with the postoperative appearance and function.

conclusionSurgical treatment using a modified mucosal advancement flap combined with a de-epithelialized mucosal flap is an effective method for labia minora hypertrophy with minimal neurovascular injury, a high rate of satisfaction with the postoperative appearance, and a low complication rate.
