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

Endometriosis is a complex disease with diverse etiologies, including hormonal, immunological, and environmental factors; however, its exact pathogenesis remains unknown. While surgical approaches are the diagnostic and therapeutic gold standard, identifying endometriosis-associated genes is a crucial first step. Five endometriosis-related gene expression studies were selected from the available datasets. Approximately, 14,167 genes common to these 5 datasets were analyzed for differential expression. Meta-analyses utilized fold-change values and standard errors obtained from each analysis, with the binomial and continuous datasets contributing to endometriosis presence and endometriosis severity meta-analysis, respectively. Approximately 160 genes showed significant results in both meta-analyses. For Bayesian analysis, endometriosis-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), the human transcription factor catalog, uterine SNP-related gene expression, disease-gene databases, and interactome databases were utilized. Twenty-four genes, present in at least three or more databases, were identified. Network analysis based on Pearson's correlation coefficients revealed the
