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 an estrogen-dependent benign disease that generally affects women at childbearing age. Despite its high incidence, pathogenesis of endometriosis is poorly clarified. There are several theories explaining the mechanism of disease such as retrograde menstruation, coelomic metaplasia, vascular and lymphatic metastasis. While endometriosis has been described in many intra- and extra-abdominal organs including the ovaries, omentum, colon, liver, lungs and brain, parenchymal splenic endometriosis is a rare situation. In recent years, with reported cases, this rare condition came onto the scene. We also wanted to present our case and question the idea of splenic immunity against endometriosis according to current literature. From now on, splenic endometriosis can be thought of as a differential diagnosis for unidentified lesions of spleen.
