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

objectiveTo examine characteristics and survival outcomes of women with apparent early-stage endometrial cancer who had a supracervical hysterectomy.

methodsThe Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program was used to identify women with presumed stage I endometrial cancer who underwent supracervical hysterectomy between 1983 and 2012. Propensity score matching was performed to adjust background difference between supracervical hysterectomy (n=1,339) and total hysterectomy (n=110,523) cases. Endometrial cancer-specific survival (CSS) was examined by multivariable analysis expressed with adjusted-hazard ratio [HR] and 95% confidence interval [CI].

resultsSupracervical hysterectomy was independently associated with younger age, low-grade disease, and small tumor size on multivariable analysis (all, P<0.001). After propensity score matching, supracervical hysterectomy remained an independent prognostic factor for decreased CSS compared to total hysterectomy (10-year rates, 91.0% versus 94.9%, adjusted-HR 1.72, 95%CI 1.20-2.47, P=0.003). Among women who received postoperative radiotherapy, 10-year CSS rates were similar between supracervical and total hysterectomy cases (84.7% versus 80.3%, P=0.40). Contrary, in the absence of postoperative radiotherapy, women undergoing supracervical hysterectomy had a significantly lower 10-year CSS rate compared to those undergoing total hysterectomy (92.1% versus 97.2%, P<0.001). Moreover, with lack of lymphadenectomy, supracervical hysterectomy was associated with decreased CSS compared to those who had total hysterectomy (91.6% versus 94.3%, P=0.018) but had similar CSS rates with lymphadenectomy (92.7% versus 91.8%, P=0.91).

conclusionAlthough rarely performed, supracervical hysterectomy is associated with decreased survival outcome among women with apparent stage I endometrial cancer supporting the importance of avoiding this procedure in women with or at risk of endometrial cancer.
