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

This study develops a spectroscopic algorithm for detection of cervical high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs). We collected reflectance and fluorescence spectra with the quantitative spectroscopy probe to measure nine spectroscopic parameters from 43 patients undergoing standard colposcopy with directed biopsy. We found that there is improved accuracy for distinguishing HSIL from non-HSIL (low grade SIL and normal tissue) when we "normalized" spectroscopy parameters by dividing the values extracted from each clinically determined suspicious site by the corresponding value extracted from a clinically normal squamous site from the same patient. The "normalized" scattering parameter (A) at 700nm, best distinguished HSIL from non-HSIL with sensitivity and specificity of 89% and 79% suggesting that a simple, monochromatic instrument measuring only A may accurately detect HSIL.
