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

objectiveSquamous cell carcinoma in situ of the cervix rarely can spread superficially to the inner surface of the uterus replacing the endometrium. CASE: We report a case of cervical squamous cell carcinoma in situ (CIS) in a 66-year-old female with contiguous extension to the endometrium with small foci of microinvasion. Immunohistochemistry revealed that these tumor cells were positive for p16, p63, and ck5/6 with a high Ki-67 labelling index. It is an extremely unusual phenomenon for cervical CIS superficial to spread to the endometrium.

conclusionCervical CIS can also spread superficially upward, and replace the endometrial lining. The detection of immunohistochemical expression of p16, p63 and CK5/6 in the lesions of cervix and the endometrium suggest that these two lesions are etiologically related, favoring the possibility of the endometrium SCC secondary to cervical SCC in situ, and reveal that HPV is a causative factor for superficial spreading SCC.
