The effect of cervical length on procedure time and VAS pain score in office hysteroscopy.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
This study aimed to investigate the effect of cervical length on procedure time and VAS pain scores during office hysteroscopy. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 50 patients who underwent office hysteroscopy for various indications such as abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility. Exclusion criteria included active vaginal infection, previous cervical surgery, and chronic pelvic pain. Cervical length was measured via transvaginal ultrasound prior to the procedure. Procedure time and VAS pain scores were recorded and analyzed. Patients with a retroverted uterus had higher post-procedure VAS scores (7.6 ± 0.8) compared to those with an anteverted uterus (4.9 ± 1.9, p < 0.001). Cervical length was found to be a significant predictor of both procedure time (β = 5.711, p < 0.001) and VAS pain score change (β = 0.167, p < 0.001). Procedure time was significantly longer in patients with increased cervical length (R
