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
BackgroundTransitioning to parenthood is stressful for relationships. Women with endometriosis face several health challenges, which may further strain their relationships when they become parents. However, it remains uncertain whether this transition compromises their relationships beyond what is observed in the general population.ObjectivesTo compare the risk of relationship dissolution, relationship satisfaction, anxiety, and depression between women with and without endometriosis.DesignLongitudinal population-based cohort study including 99,531 singleton pregnancies to 84,642 women.Methods1,476 pregnancies to women with self-reported endometriosis were compared to 98,064 pregnancies in women without endometriosis, using data from the Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort Study (1999-2017). Women were followed up to 8 years postpartum. Adjusted risk ratios (aRR) with 95 % confidence intervals (CI) were calculated by multivariable log-binomial regression, adjusting for age, education and income.ResultsWe observed increasing trends of mothers not living with the biological father (12% at 8 years postpartum) and of relationship dissatisfaction (4.7% at 5 years postpartum), without significant differences in the risk of relationship dissolution (10% vs. 12%) or dissatisfaction (4.8% vs. 4.7%) between women with and without endometriosis. However, women with endometriosis had significantly higher risks of anxiety (aRR: 1.30, 95% CI: 1.06-1.58) and depression (aRR: 1.32, 95% CI: 1.16-1.50) at 8 years postpartum.ConclusionMothers with endometriosis did not exhibit increased relationship dissolution or dissatisfaction compared to those without, despite experiencing a greater mental health burden. While these findings are encouraging, they should not trivialize the potential impact of endometriosis on quality of life.
