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

This case report describes the complete excision of a parasitic fibroid using the vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) technique in a 49-year-old morbidly obese female patient. The patient presented with heavy menstrual bleeding and pelvic organ prolapse, and imaging revealed a right degenerated subserosal fibroid. Due to her significant comorbidities, a classical vaginal hysterectomy was performed. During the procedure, a parasitic fibroid was identified and excised using the vNOTES technique.The fibroid measured 7.5 × 5.5 cm and was successfully removed without complications. This report presents the first documented case of spontaneous parasitic fibroid excision using vNOTES, highlighting the possibility of using this approach in managing parasitic fibroids, particularly in obese patients.
