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

backgroundHigh-intensity focused ultrasound ablation has emerged as a noninvasive therapeutic option for adenomyosis of the uterus. We studied a female with infertility patient to explore the application of in vitro fertilization combined with high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment in patients with endometriosis complicated by adenomyosis. CASE PRESENTATION: A retrospective analysis of a 30-year-old Han Chinese woman with infertility complicated by both endometriosis and adenomyosis was performed, including pregnancy achieved through in vitro fertilization, downregulation using a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment and final pregnancy outcomes. The patient successfully conceived following the combined application of high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment and downregulation using a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, with an intrauterine pregnancy confirmed in June 2025 and appropriate fetal development.

conclusionThe combined application of downregulation using a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist and high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment represents a promising therapeutic strategy for patients with infertility with concurrent endometriosis and adenomyosis. Nevertheless, prospective multi-centre studies remain essential to validate the long-term efficacy and safety profiles.
