Synthesis in BJOG : an international journal of obstetrics and gynaecology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

backgroundDistinguishing hydatidiform moles (HMs) from nonmolar specimens and the subclassification of HM are important because complete hydatidiform mole (CHM) is associated with an increased risk of development of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia. However, diagnosis based solely on morphology has poor inter-observer reproducibility. Recent studies have demonstrated that the use of p57

objectivesTo evaluate the accuracy of p57 SEARCH STRATEGY: Major databases were searched from inception to March 2017 using the terms 'hydatidiform mole', 'p57', and 'genotyping', with their variations, and the search limit for the relevant study design. SELECTION CRITERIA: Any cross-sectional study, case series, case-control study, cohort study, or clinical trial that evaluated the accuracy of p57 DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Extracted accuracy data were tabulated and pooled using a hierarchical bivariate random effects model. MAIN

resultsBivariate meta-analysis produced a summary sensitivity of 0.984 (95% CI: 0.916-1.000) and specificity of 0.625 (95% CI: 0.503-0.736) with significant heterogeneity for specificity (I
