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 considered 'silent disease' but is debilitating that impacts quality of life. It is chronic, benign condition which is oestrogen dependent and has chronic inflammatory component. Endometriosis is associated with menstruation with increased sensitivity to oestrogen receptors and with low progesterone levels. Locally produced prostaglandins from endometriotic lesions leads to pain. There is delay in diagnosis by several years, as symptoms are not specific. This can lead to decline in fertility and quality of life. Imaging techniques and bio markers are not very specific but definitive diagnosis can be with Laparoscopy and histopathology. The first line of therapy will be medical, for relief of pain and fertility. Surgery is advised after failure of medical therapy, for severe degree of disease and deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). Assisted reproductive technology (ART) therapy is proposed for improved fertility outcome after surgery. Recurrence is known to occur after therapy.
