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

Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a procedure that involves partial or total removal of the external female genitalia; usually, it is done by a non-professional practitioner. Here, we present a case of a 12-year-old girl with type 1 diabetes who was found to have a clitoral cyst several years after undergoing FGM (local/traditional circumcision). Unlike many cases that remain unnoticed until adolescence or adulthood, this patient came to medical attention earlier. She underwent elective cyst excision, with preservation of as much of the clitoral remnant as possible. The clitoral cyst was an epidermal inclusion cyst on histopathological examination. The patient was seen in the clinic three weeks after the procedure. She was doing fine with no complaint. Her examination showed a healed, dry, and clean wound, and she was discharged from the clinic.
