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

Objective: To evaluate the clinical value of routinely using sterile gauze strips to occlude the vagina after transvaginal ultrasound-guided oocyte retrieval (TVOR) in preventing postoperative vaginal bleeding. Methods: The medical records of 1194 patients who underwent transvaginal oocyte retrieval between March and April 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with no obvious bleeding at the vaginal puncture site were divided into group A (without gauze packing, 586 cases) and group B (with conventional gauze packing, 608 cases) according to whether gauze was used to control bleeding. The incidence of vaginal bleeding at 30 minutes, 1 hour, 3 hours and bloody discharge at 3 days after oocyte retrieval was compared by the chi-square test between the two groups. Patients in group B were also assessed for their tolerance of gauze tamponade removal and the ease and accuracy of postoperative gauze management. Results: There was no statistical difference in general patient information between the two groups (P>0.05). Compared with group B the incidence of vaginal bleeding at 30 minutes (χ Conclusion: Routine use of sterile gauze after transvaginal oocyte collection significantly reduces the incidence of vaginal bleeding and is well tolerated by patients.
