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

Objective: To reduce the damage of uterine endometrium caused during hysteroscopic myomectomy (HM) for reproductive aged patients, a new uterine endometrium preservation hysteroscopic myomectomy (UEP-HM) has been developed. In this study, we introduced this technique with comparing to the conventional hysteroscopic myomectomy (C-HM). Study Design: The data from 94 patients aged 42 or younger who underwent HM (38 cases with UEP-HM and 56 cases with C-HM) for treating single Type 1 or Type 2 submucosal leiomyoma (SL) were analysed retrospectively for comparing the characteristics of both patient and target SL. In this process, we defined the operation time 60 min or over as the longtime operation (LTO) and the SM sized 3 cm or over as the large submucosal leiomyoma (LSL) for detecting the influential factors, including this procedure, on the difficulty of HM. For assisting the prediction of operation time (OT), we investigated the relationship between the OT and the cube of average diameter (AD) of target SL referring with some past reports. Results: Although when comparing UEP and control groups, parity, AD, the number of patients with Type 2 SL, OT, and the number of infertile patients showed significant difference, in the multivariate analysis only LSL showed the significant influence on the possibility of LTO. Next, we compared OT/Cube of AD, which calculated by dividing OT by the cube of AD for evaluating OT from the target SL size and confirmed that there was no difference in those 2 groups (3.7 ± 3.0 (95 %CI: 0.9 - 13.3, n = 38) vs. 3.9 ± 3.2 (95 %CI: 0.4 - 17.3, n = 56), p = 0.79). Conclusions: The new UEP-HM can become an alternative method of C-HM without procedure-specific difficulty. In the future, to investigate the prognosis of this procedure, more patients and further analyses should be accumulated.
