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

Angiomatosis is a rare benign vascular lesion characterised by diffuse, haphazard proliferation of blood vessels, most commonly within adipose and fibrous tissue. This report describes the case of a patient in her early 30s who presented with refractory menorrhagia and pelvic pain. Following total laparoscopic hysterectomy with bilateral salpingectomy, histopathological examination identified angiomatosis of the uterine corpus and cervix. This finding is exceptionally rare, with only five cases reported in the literature. Conventional investigations, including ultrasonography and hysteroscopy, may be inadequate, with definitive diagnosis often established only on postoperative histopathological analysis. Medical management appears largely ineffective in symptom control, with most reported cases resulting in hysterectomy. Given the limited number of reported cases, the natural progression of this condition is largely unknown, and postoperative surveillance may be warranted.
