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 an estrogen-dependent disorder that affects about 10% of reproductive-age women. EMS affects female neuroendocrine and reproductive functions, greatly compromising female reproductive health and quality of life. However, the pathogenesis of EMS has not been fully elucidated, and effective treatment options are still lacking. The neuroendocrine-immune axis can achieve cross-regulation through the interaction of neurotransmitters, hormone-like substances, cytokines, and their receptors to maintain body homeostasis, and this imbalance of regulation is involved in the occurrence and development of EMS. In this narrative review, we summarize recent progress on the role of the neuroendocrine-immune axis in the pathogenesis of endometriosis, as well as the emergence of novel therapies targeting this axis. This review aims to offer a novel perspective for the in-depth exploration of EMS pathogenesis and the identification of potential effective treatments.
