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

objectivesThe purpose of this study is to statistically compare the mean ages of the patients with gynecologic cancer in our hospital during the 2000-2009 interval. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe data was collected from the Histopathology Exams (HPE) registers.

resultsGynecologic cancer was discovered in 1244 cases: 731 cervical cancers, 392 uterine cancers, 82 ovarian cancers, 31 vulvar cancers and eight vaginal cancers.The mean ages were 52.94±12.96 years for cervical cancer (age range 22-87 years), 61.71±9.06 years for uterine cancer (age range 38-85 years), 51.46±14.28 years for ovarian cancer (age range 18-77 years), and 65.90±9.65 years for vulvar cancer (age range 39-81 years).After performing Student's test, the statistically significant differences were: cervical vs uterine (p<0.000001), cervical vs vulvar (<0.000001), uterine vs ovarian (<0.000001), uterine vs vulvar (<0.05), and ovarian vs vulvar (p=0.000001). Cervical and ovarian cancer mean ages were not significantly different (p=0.33).

conclusionsThe mean ages of the patients from the groups with five gynecological cancer types from our study are similar to those in literature. Existing screening measures must be applied and new ones must be implemented in order to reduce the burden of gynaecological cancers.
