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.
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
The aim of the study was to investigate the application of tumor abnormal protein (TAP) combined with transvaginal ultrasound in the diagnosis of early-stage endometrial cancer. A total of 248 patients with suspected endometrial cancer who were admitted to the Gynecology Department of the Second People's Hospital of Liaocheng from September 2013 to September 2015 were selected and randomly divided into the control (n=124) and the observation group (n=124). The control group received conventional ultrasound examination, while the observation, underwent TAP combined with conventional ultrasound examination. Differences in the definite diagnostic results of the two diagnostic methods and curettage were compared, and the application of TAP combined with transvaginal ultrasound in the diagnosis of early-stage endometrial cancer was studied. Among 248 patients receiving hysteroscopy and diagnostic curettage examination, there were 75 patients with early-stage endometrial cancer, and 173 benign patients. The total diagnostic accordance rate of conventional ultrasound for endometrial lesions was 87.90% (n=218), and the accordance rate for early-stage endometrial carcinoma was 90.67% (n=68); the total diagnostic accordance rate of TAP combined with vaginal ultrasound for endometrial lesions was 94.35% (n=234), and for early-stage endometrial cancer was 94.67% (n=71); of TAP combined with conventional ultrasound for endometrial lesions and endometrial cancer were higher than those of simple conventional ultrasound (P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of conventional ultrasound in the diagnosis of endometrial cancer was 0.754 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.211-2.534]. The AUC of TAP combined with vaginal ultrasound in the diagnosis of endometrial cancer was 0.814 (95% CI: 0.517-0.932), and a comparison between the two groups was statistically significant (P=0.011). The accuracy rate of TAP combined with transvaginal ultrasound in the diagnosis of early-stage endometrial cancer is relatively high, and it is worthy promoting and applying in clinical practice.
