Endometriosis: surgical management for fertility enhancement.
Review in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Endometriosis is a common, chronic inflammatory condition characterized by the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside of the uterus that can impact fertility through multiple mechanisms. In this review, the diagnosis, classification, staging, and surgical management of endometriosis for fertility enhancement is discussed. Surgery for patients seeking to optimize fertility or for whom infertility is the only symptom is complex. In patients with superficial endometriosis, laparoscopy may enhance fertility for unassisted pregnancy, but current guidelines recommend against routine surgery prior to ART. In patients with deep endometriosis, surgical intervention depends on multiple factors, including patient age, ovarian reserve, fertility goals, and the presence of other infertility factors. While there may be potential improvements in fertility-related outcomes, this must be weighed against potential impacts to ovarian reserve. Surgical techniques that minimize damage to the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and uterus are essential when fertility is the goal. While there is increasing interest in regenerative therapies for treatment of endometriosis (e.g., stem-cell based therapies, platelet-rich plasma, or extracellular vesicles), these remain investigational and are not yet utilized clinically for fertility enhancement in patients with endometriosis.
