Correlation of Bacterial Infections in Women With and Without Intrauterine Devices.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionThe goal of this study is to evaluate the correlation of
methodsA deidentified, retrospective analysis, with 234 test results within a large obstetrics and gynecology (OBGYN) practice in both Monmouth and Ocean County, New Jersey, from 2019 to 2020, was used to determine positivity rates of
resultsThe study determined statistical variation among the two groups for BV positivity (p < 0.001), CT/NG (p = 0.03), and concurrent infections (p = 0.002). However, no statistical difference was noted for Myc/Urea infections (p = 0.05, 95% CI: 0.89-20.88, OR: 3.60). Furthermore, no statistical variation was determined by age. However, there was a statistical difference in concurrent infections by IUD types (p = 0.02, 95% CI: 0.00-0.87, OR: 0).
conclusionThis study supports a statistically significant association between gonorrhea, chlamydia, and BV in women and those who seek gynecologic care with IUD usage. Our findings also reveal that age and nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT)-confirmed positivity for
