Endometriosis and aspirin: a systematic review.
Synthesis in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Introduction: Endometriosis is delineated as a benign yet steroid-dependent disorder characterized by the ectopic presence of endometrial glandular and stromal cells outside the uterine cavity, affecting estimated 10%-15% of women of reproductive age, 20%-50% of all women with infertility and costing a great economic burden per-patient. Endometriosis exerts pervasive influence on multiple facets of female reproductive physiology. Given its characterization as a chronic inflammatory disorder, escalated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines were unequivocally recognized as well-established characteristics of endometriosis, which might attribute to mechanisms like retrograde menstruation, progesterone receptor resistance, and immune dysregulation. Therapeutic utilization of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like aspirin, analgesic agent for reducing pain, inflammation, and fever, could be holding promise in augmenting reproductive outcomes of endometriosis women. Therefore, the objective of this comprehensive review is to elucidate the intricate interplay between endometriosis and aspirin, both within the context of infertility and beyond. We meticulously explore potential pharmacological agents targeting endometriosis, which may concurrently optimize the efficacy of reproductive interventions, while also delving into the underlying mechanistic pathways linking endometriosis with inflammatory processes. Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search in the data available in Results: The survey of the chosen terms revealed 72 articles, only 10 of which were considered for review. Discussion: Based on the research available currently, it is not substantial enough to address the conclusion that aspirin shall be an effective therapeutic choice for endometriosis, further studies are needed to elucidate the efficacy, safety profile, and optimal dosing regimens of aspirin in the context of endometriosis treatment.
