Embracing the mental health challenges of uterus transplant candidates.
Review in Acta obstetricia et gynecologica Scandinavica, 2025. 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
Uterus transplantation (UTx) has emerged from clinical trials and is expected to become the standard of care for uterine factor infertility. Uterus transplant candidates historically have had to meet strict eligibility criteria to participate in clinical trials. Continued application of psychologic selection criteria from clinical trial may hinder the expansion of UTx. UTx candidates come with unique mental health challenges, having a higher incidence of mental health problems than the general population. We posit in this commentary that broadening psychological inclusion criterion and provision of mental health support will enhance access to UTx. At the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), candidates are not required to mention mental health comorbidities at initial screening. Regardless of their mental health comorbidity status, all recipients at the UAB have had a successful uterus transplant. Outcome of a live birth has also not been affected. Perioperative mental health challenges are successfully managed with a support of psychologists and psychiatrists.
