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

Since the first live birth in 2014 after uterus transplantation, the procedure has become a viable fertility treatment worldwide for the 1 in 500 women affected by absolute uterine factor infertility. In this review, we provide insight on Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH) and the other conditions that lead to the development of AUFI. Additionally, we provide a comprehensive overview of the evolution of uterus transplantation from the first sporadic cases to the current clinical status of the procedure, and detail multiple aspects that go into a successful UTx. Furthermore, we review some of the more recent developments in this rapidly expanding field and evaluate the prospective direction of UTx.
