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

In current clinical practice, the diagnosis of cervical cancer (CC) is mainly through the cervical screening followed by a necessary biopsy, but this method is labor consuming and expensive, and can only detect superficial lesions around the external cervical orifice. In contrast, photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is sensitive to the abnormal angiogenesis deep in the biological tissue, and may be capable for the intact scanning both around the external orifice and in cervical canal. In this paper, we for the first time put forward the photoacoustic diagnosis of CC. A total of 30 in-vitro experiments were carried out in this study, and the obtained depth maximum amplitude projection (DMAP) images were analyzed to evaluate the extent of the angiogenesis for different clinical stages of CC. Stronger absorption from the cervical lesions is observed relative to that of normal tissue. Paired t-test indicates that the difference in mean optical absorption (MOA) between normal tissue and cervical lesion has statistical significance with a confidential coefficient of 0.05. Statistical results also show that the MOAs of the cervical lesions are closely related to the severity of CC. These results imply that PAI may have great utility in the clinical diagnosis of CC.
