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.

Abstract

introductionAbnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is one of the most common reason for visits to gynecologists. Endometrial biopsy is a routine procedure in gynecological practice to detect the etiology of AUB and to exclude precancerous and cancerous lesions of the endometrium. The aim of this study was to assess the causes of AUB among women, who had undergone invasive diagnostics due to AUB. MATERIAL AND

methodsThis study was carried among 531 women, who had undergone invasive diagnostics due to AUB between January 2018 and December 2018. Women were divided into premenopausal (with perimenopausal) and postmenopausal groups. Transvaginal ultrasound was performed. Endometrial thickness was compared with histopathological results in each subgroup and statistically analyzed. The incidence of histopathological findings and rate of anemia were also analyzed.

resultsIn our series of patients the most common cause of AUB based on histopathological results was endometrial polyp, both before and after menopause. The most frequent pathologies at ultrasound findings were leiomyomas and endometrial polyps. The incidence of taken together: atypical hyperplasia and endometrial cancer was significantly higher in postmenopausal group (8.58%) than in pre- and perimenopausal (1.35%,

conclusionsMeasurements of endometrial thickness seems to be acceptable initial diagnostic tool to distinguish between benign and pathological endometrial changes both before and after menopause.
