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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesThis study analyzed the trends of opportunistic salpingectomy (OS) accompanied by hysterectomy in a 9-year follow-up period at a single institute.

methodsThis retrospective cohort study included 1184 women at Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital from 2007 to 2015 who underwent hysterectomy performed with or without OS. Parameters including patient age, operating time, surgical approach, length of hospital stay, and perioperative complications were evaluated.

resultsThere was an increase in the number of hysterectomies with OS (from 8% to 80%;

conclusionThe results of this 9-year follow-up study revealed that, as a cancer prevention method, OS seems to be feasible and safe, requires minimal extra time, and does not increase the morbidity or long-term sequelae.
