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

introductionDuring the last 3 decades, the standard treatment for stage Ia2-Ib1 cervical cancer has been Piver-Rutledge class II or III radical hysterectomy. However, this surgery is associated with a high rate of urologic morbidity.

aimTo determine the efficacy of class I radical hysterectomy compared with class III radical hysterectomy in terms of morbidity, overall survival, and patterns of relapse in patients with Ia2-Ib1 cervical cancer undergoing primary surgery. MATERIAL AND

methodsA total of 101 patients with stage Ia2-Ib1 cervical cancer < 2 cm were randomized to class I and class III hysterectomy groups. Clinical, pathologic, and follow-up data were prospectively collected. Univariate analysis was carried out. Of the total patients, 45 were randomized to class I surgery and 56 to class III surgery. No significant differences were observed in terms of pathologic findings or adjuvant treatment (p > 0.05). The morbidity rates were higher after class III surgery.

resultsThe difference in recurrence rate between the class I and class III groups was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). The 5-year overall survival rate was 93% and 91%, respectively (p > 0.05). There were no significant differences in terms of recurrence rate or overall survival among patients with stage Ia2-Ib1 cervical cancer < 2 cm who underwent class I or radical (class III) hysterectomy. Morbidity was proportional to the extent of radicality.

conclusionsThese data confirm the need for reducing surgical radicality in the treatment of patients with early cervical cancer, by tailoring the extent of resection according to the extent of disease.
