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 defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity, affecting up to 10% of women of reproductive age. Abdominal wall endometriosis is a specific type of extrapelvic endometriosis, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.3% to 3.5%. A history of abdominal surgery, particularly cesarean section, is the main risk factor for developing abdominal wall endometriosis. We report the case of a 43-year-old female patient with a history of cesarean section who presented with cyclic and progressively worsening pain in terms of intensity and duration in the left iliac fossa, persisting for 18 months. Clinical evaluation revealed a solid mass in the deep soft tissues of the hypogastrium, with subsequent histopathological confirmation of abdominal wall endometriosis.
