Tailoring the Diagnostic Pathway for Medical and Surgical Treatment of Uterine Fibroids: A Narrative Review.
Review in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Uterine leiomyomas are the most common benign uterine tumors in women and are often asymptomatic, with clinical manifestation occurring in 20-25% of cases. The diagnostic pathway begins with clinical suspicion and includes an ultrasound examination, diagnostic hysteroscopy, and, when deemed necessary, magnetic resonance imaging. The decision-making process should consider the impairment of quality of life due to symptoms, reproductive desire, suspicion of malignancy, and, of course, the woman's preferences. Despite the absence of a definitive cure, the management of fibroid-related symptoms can benefit from various medical therapies, ranging from symptomatic treatments to the latest hormonal drugs aimed at reducing the clinical impact of fibroids on women's well-being. When medical therapy is not a definitive solution for a patient, it can be used as a bridge to prepare the patient for surgery. Surgical approaches continue to play a crucial role in the treatment of fibroids, as the gynecologist has the opportunity to choose from various surgical options and tailor the intervention to the patient's needs. This review aims to summarize the clinical pathway necessary for the diagnostic assessment of a patient with uterine fibromatosis, presenting all available treatment options to address the needs of different types of women.
