Chronic Primary Pelvic Pain Syndromes in Women: A Comprehensive Review.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) in women is a multifactorial and complex condition. It often remains undiagnosed or inadequately treated. Despite its high prevalence, CPP continues to be a taboo subject, leading to delays in seeking medical care. Chronic primary pelvic pain syndromes (CPPPS) are pain conditions without an obvious underlying diagnosis, including painful bladder syndrome, vulvodynia, genito-pelvic pain/penetration disorder, levator ani syndrome, proctalgia fugax, myofascial syndrome, pudendal neuralgia, and coccyx pain syndrome. A comprehensive review of the literature was conducted to understand the most common forms of CPPPS in women, focusing on diagnostic criteria, pathophysiology, and treatment options. Due to the complexity of CPPPS and varied treatment responses, management requires a multidisciplinary approach. Although various treatment modalities exist, no single strategy is universally effective, emphasizing the need for individualized care. Future research should prioritize refining diagnostic criteria and investigating new therapeutic strategies.
