Insights Into the Clinical Features, Diagnosis, Treatment, and Prognosis of Post-Surgical Abdominal Wall Endometriosis: A Retrospective Study.

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.
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: This study aimed to categorize abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) according to lesion depth, analyze its clinical features, treatment, outcomes, and prognosis, and share clinical treatment experience. Patients and methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 187 AWE patients who underwent surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine between January 2013 and April 2024. Patients were classified into three types: type I (skin and subcutaneous fat layer), type II (fascia or muscle layer), and type III (peritoneal layer). Clinical features, perioperative outcomes, and recurrence rates were analyzed. Results: Among the 187 AWE patients, 28 (14.97%) were classified as type I, 104 (55.61%) as type II, and 55 (29.42%) as type III. The main complaint was an abdominal wall mass or/and pain (98.39%, 184/187). Both preoperative imaging and intraoperative exploration revealed a significant trend of increasing lesion diameter across types I, II, and III ( Conclusion: The presence of an abdominal mass or pain in or around a surgical scar should raise suspicion of AWE. Type III AWE is associated with the most severe clinical manifestations, larger lesion diameter, longer operative time, and a higher incidence of intraoperative mesh and drainage placement. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice, and the overall recurrence rate is low.
