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

Endometriosis is a common gynecologic disorder with a significant burden of morbidity that is often subject to substantial diagnostic delay. While transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) is the first-line imaging tool for symptoms like chronic pelvic pain and infertility, it has limitations in detecting deep endometriosis. In 2024, the Society of Radiologists in Ultrasound (SRU) issued recommendations to enhance detection by incorporating additional techniques into standard TVUS. This article outlines practical adaptations to improve diagnostic accuracy with minimal extra scan time in community practices. It covers patient selection, stakeholder involvement, training, and quality assurance while addressing implementation challenges. Community ultrasound practices play a key role in early detection, guiding patients toward appropriate care.
