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

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic posed unique challenges for Asian people living with endometriosis. The purpose of this study was to describe the endometriosis-related coping and self-management strategies used by South, East, and Southeast Asian women living in British Columbia, Canada, during the COVID-19 pandemic and how these contributed to their strength and resilience. Design and methods: Using photovoice methodology, South, East, and Southeast Asian women residing in a Western Canadian province were invited to generate photographs representing their experiences of living with endometriosis during the COVID-19 pandemic. Photographs were discussed during semi-structured interviews, and data were thematically analyzed. Results: Women ( Conclusions: East, South, and Southeast Asian women demonstrated a resilience approach to living with endometriosis during the COVID-19 pandemic. By drawing on support systems and coping and management strategies, they built resilience mechanisms that promoted well-being and sustainability.
