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

introductionThis study was conducted to explore the impact of hysteroscopic cold-knife resection (HCKR) combined with dydrogesterone on natural conception in patients with endometrial polyps (EPs).

aimWe aimed to assess the clinical efficacy of HCKR combined with dydrogesterone in patients with EPs, focusing particularly on reproductive outcomes and natural conception rates. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 110 patients with EPs were categorized into 2 groups: the cold-knife group, which underwent HCKR with dydrogesterone, and the control group, which received curettage with dydrogesterone. The comparisons included baseline data, surgical indicators (operative time, intraoperative bleeding, and length of hospital stay), postoperative complications, menstrual blood loss score (as per the Pictorial Blood Assessment Chart [PBAC]), endometrial thickness, postoperative fertility outcomes, including time to ovulation recovery and 12-month natural pregnancy rate, female sexual function (as measure via the Female Sexual Function Index [FSFI]) scores (desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction, and pain), and sex hormone levels pre- and 1 month post-treatment.

resultsBoth groups had similar baseline characteristics. The cold-knife group demonstrated shorter operative time, reduced intraoperative blood loss, shorter hospital stay, lower postoperative complication rates, reduced PBAC scores, thinner endometrial thickness, and better fertility outcomes. Both groups showed improved FSFI scores and decreased levels of estradiol, follicle-stimulating hormone, and luteinizing hormone post-treatment, with no significant intergroup differences in hormonal parameters.

conclusionsHysteroscopic cold-knife resection combined with dydrogesterone is effective for treating EPs, improving surgical safety, recovery, and fertility outcomes.
