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

Chronic pelvic pain is a severe condition affecting patients with endometriosis. Treatment options range from physical therapy, medical management, to surgical resection. However, some patients continue to have severe pain after maximal management. We review current treatment options for endometriosis and discuss regional anesthesia techniques currently used for acute pain that may be used for chronic pelvic pain patients. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar databases through 2025. An algorithm on which procedure to choose was also created to guide treatment in hopes to bridge the gap for patients who are recalcitrant to current available therapies.
