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

Purpose: To identify risk factors that predict the persistence of noncyclical pelvic pain in patients with endometriosis despite receiving hormone therapy. Methods: This retrospective study examined 164 patients with histopathologically confirmed deep infiltrating endometriosis (DE) and/or ovarian endometrioma (OV). Clinical data obtained through preoperative face-to-face interviews were analyzed to identify risk factors for persistent pain despite receiving hormonal treatment (defined as visual analog-scale score [VAS] score > 30). All patients received preoperative hormonal treatment with progestins, combined oral contraceptives, or gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists for at least three months prior to surgery. Results: Multivariable analysis identified several risk factors: OV (odds ratio [OR]: 4.11, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.67-10.1, Conclusions: Patients with ovarian endometrioma, noncyclical chronic pelvic pain, severe dyspareunia, and a history of cesarean section are at an increased risk for persistent pain despite hormonal treatment.
