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 (EMS) is a long-term inflammatory disease. It represents one of the most prevalent gynecological conditions, impacting an estimated 5% of reproductive women. Therefore, endometriosis contributes to substantial worldwide health challenges and healthcare costs. In EMS disease, endometrial glandular and stromal tissues are abnormally located outside the uterus. Similarly to the natural endometrium, these tissues grow and proliferate in response to estrogen-dependent signals. The pain and limited effectiveness of treatments are often linked to the inflammatory reaction triggered by EMS-associated ectopic tissue. This is especially amplified during the peaks of estrogen release that occur as the menstrual cycle transitions from the proliferative phase to ovulation. Maintaining the integrity of the mucosal lining, defending against pathogenic insults, and controlling physiological processes are all made possible by a healthy, balanced state of gut biomass. Additionally, numerous intestinal bacteria have been discovered to possess estrogen-metabolizing enzymes, which affect the estrobolome and, consequently, influence estrogen-related disorders. Therefore, there is increasing interest in understanding the role of microbiota and the estrobolome in endometriosis pathogenesis. This review will focus on the role of microbiota and the impact of estrobolome alterations in endometriosis pathogenesis.
