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

Background: Endometriosis, a prevalent chronic gynecologic disorder, significantly impacts women's health, with both genetic and environmental factors contributing to its heritability. Within the adaptive immune system, the NOD-like receptors (NLR) pathway plays pivotal roles in various autoinflammatory diseases, regulating interleukins, proinflammatory cytokines, and NF-κB activity. However, the potential association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the NOD1, NOD2, PYDC1, and PYDC2 genes and the predisposition to endometriosis risk remains unexplored. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 54 patients diagnosed with ovarian endometriosis and 54 control subjects were included. The genetic SNPs of NOD1 (rs2075820 and rs2075818) and NOD2 (rs104895461) were assessed using the PCR-RFLP (polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism) method. Additionally, the polymorphisms of PYDC1 and PYDC2 were evaluated using Sanger sequencing. After conducting polymorphism analysis, the genetic profiles were assessed with the clinical manifestations and the size of ovarian endometriomas, categorized as either small (<4 cm) or large (≥4 cm). Results: Significant differences in the NOD1 rs2075820 (G: A) genotypes were found. The GG genotype was more prevalent in endometriosis patients ( Conclusion: These findings emphasize the influence of genetic polymorphisms on the clinical manifestations of endometriosis. Specifically, gene polymorphisms in NLRs have been found to significantly impact infertility and increase endometrioma size.
