Co-existence of the abdominal wall and thoracic endometriosis: case report and literature review.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Extra-pelvic endometriosis always presents complex diagnostic challenges due to its non-specific symptoms. We describe a rare case of coexisting iatrogenic abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) and thoracic endometriosis (TE) in a 33-year-old woman without pelvic involvement. The patient, with a history of two cesarean sections, presented with chronic abdominal pain and an asymptomatic pulmonary nodule. Both lesions were removed through surgical resection and histologic examination confirmed endometriosis. One year after the surgery, the patient experienced a recurrence of the abdominal pain and opted for hormone therapy. In this case, AWE is consistent with iatrogenic endometrial transplantation, while the thoracic lesion may result from blood transmission after cesarean section, but the specific mechanism remains to be further explored. We aimed to provide a novel insight into the multifactorial pathogenesis of extrapelvic endometriosis and multidisciplinary management.
