Case Report: SVF after chemoradiotherapy for cervical cancer diagnosed by non-contact hysteroscopic technique.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 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
Sigmoidovaginal fistula (SVF) is an extremely distressing and complex condition that significantly impacts a patient's quality of life. The successful management of SVF relies on accurately identifying the fistula's location and tract. However, preoperative localization can be challenging in certain cases. In this report, we describe a rare complication in a patient with stage IVA cervical cancer who developed SVF after concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Conventional diagnostic methods, including electron colonoscopy, methylene blue testing, and fistulography, were unable to locate the fistula. As an alternative, we used a non-contact hysteroscopic technique, which successfully identified the location, size, and number of fistulas. This method is particularly effective for patients with SVF, especially in postmenopausal women with narrowed or adherent vaginal tracts, women with intact hymen, and those with complex, high-grade vaginal fistulas resulting from cancer treatment with chemoradiotherapy.
