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

A teenage girl presented with sudden lower abdominal pain following exercise, prompting initial consideration of ovarian cyst rupture by the attending emergency physician. However, the presence of unilateral renal absence on Computed Tomography (CT) imaging strongly suggested a reproductive tract malformation, later confirmed by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Surgical exploration during laparotomy revealed a functional non-communicating rudimentary horn with associated ovarian endometriosis, in the setting of chronic dysmenorrhea. This rare case underscores the essentiality of comprehensive preoperative assessment to identify anatomical variations, guide surgical decision-making, and prevent diagnostic errors. Subsequent literature review focused on the co-occurrence of endometriosis in rudimentary horns and congenital urinary system abnormalities.
