Evaluation of Proinflammatory Cytokines Concentrations in Plasma, Peritoneal, and Endometrioma Fluids in Women Operated on for Ovarian Endometriosis-A Pilot Study.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Some studies indicate the role of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8 in the development of endometriosis. However, a comprehensive assessment of plasma, peritoneal, and endometrioma fluids of proinflammatory cytokine concentrations in women with ovarian endometriosis has not yet been performed. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze plasma, peritoneal, and endometrioma fluids for selected proinflammatory cytokine concentrations in women operated on for ovarian endometriosis. A retrospective study was conducted with 56 women who underwent surgery for ovarian endometriosis. Body mass, height, and waist circumference were measured, as well as BMI being calculated. Plasma, peritoneal, and endometrioma fluids' interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) were determined by ELISA. Levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly higher in endometrioma fluid compared to plasma and peritoneal fluid. In addition, levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly higher in peritoneal fluid than found in plasma. Levels of IL-8 did not significantly differ between plasma and both peritoneal and endometrioma fluids, or between peritoneal and endometrioma fluids. There were also positive correlations among IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α levels in endometrioma and peritoneal fluids (ρ = 0.29;
