Ectopic Prostatic Tissue in the Uterine Cervix Following Vaginal Hysterectomy.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Ectopic prostatic tissue (EPT) in the female genital tract is a relatively rare histopathological finding. EPT occurs when tissue from one region is found in another region, a phenomenon observed in various medical cases. However, the presence of ectopic tissue specific to one gender in another is uncommon. An 83-year-old woman presented to the gynaecology outpatient clinic with symptoms of uterovaginal prolapse and subsequently underwent a vaginal hysterectomy. Histologic examination of the uterus revealed the presence of mixed glandular and squamous prostatic elements within the cervical tissue. The exact embryological origins of cervical ectopic prostatic tissue remain incompletely understood. It is likely that a combination of genetic, hormonal, and developmental factors contributes to its occurrence.
