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

This study assesses outcomes of colposcopy referrals for post-coital, intermenstrual, or other abnormal bleeding with negative oncogenic human papillomavirus and negative to low-grade cytology. Of 112 cases with median age of 34.5 years, cervical biopsy occurred in 19%, treatment of ectropion in 19%, endometrial sampling in 8%, polypectomy in 4%, and contraceptive change in 2%. No cervical or endometrial neoplasia was detected. Patients with bleeding symptoms and reassuring co-test may instead attend a general gynaecology clinic.
