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

Endometriosis is an oestrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting menstruating women, with varying levels of severity. Oestrogen dysregulation is responsible for chronic inflammation, angiogenesis, endometrial lesion development, progression, and infertility during menarche in afflicted women. The inflammatory mediators associated with this chronic painful disease have been established, with research also indicating the relationship between dysbiosis and disease manifestation. Endometriosis is also present with several painful comorbidities, including endometrial cancer, cardiovascular disease, and autoimmunity. The lack of specific and sensitive non-invasive diagnostic procedures, coupled with poor response to current therapeutic approaches, means that treatment needs remain unmet. Surgical procedures are performed to remove endometriosis ectopic lesions, for which the recurrence rate of disease is up to 50%, with certain patients exhibiting no alleviation of symptoms. This review aims to outline the aetiology of endometriosis, detailing novel diagnostic approaches and potential therapeutic approaches, namely advanced therapeutic medical products (ATMPs), including stem cell therapy and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) gene editing. This timely review also provides novel insights into the important recent modalities which may be applied for the diagnosis and therapeutic response of endometriosis, including biomarkers, microfluidic platforms, and organoid systems. Undoubtedly, reliable, reproducible, sensitive, and specific models of endometriosis in humans are urgently needed to investigate and detail the aetiology of this debilitating disease.
