Psychological Distress and Quality of Life in Women With Endometriosis: A Narrative Review of Therapeutic Approaches and Challenges.
Review in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The chronic gynecological disorder endometriosis is a debilitating condition for women's physical and psychological health. Endometriosis is a disease that causes endometrial-like tissue to grow outside the uterus and causes debilitating symptoms, including chronic pain, fatigue, and infertility. Women with endometriosis often suffer from psychological distress, especially anxiety, depression, and social isolation, which aggravates the whole burden. The purpose of this review was to review the psychological impact of endometriosis and its influence on quality of life (QoL) and examine the relationship between physical symptomatology and mental health. It also discusses current therapeutic approaches: medical treatment, psychological interventions, and complementary therapies, and problems of delayed diagnosis, poor multidisciplinary care, and stigma. An integrated care model combining physical and psychological support is required as concluded from the review. Recommendations for future research are made, specifically in the areas of personalized care strategies and improving healthcare access to improve outcomes for women with endometriosis.
