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

purposeTo explore the effects of traditional Chinese medicine for vaginal lavage combined with psychological intervention on the immune function and clinical efficacy in patients with cervical cancer.

methodsPatients with cervical cancer treated in our hospital from January 2020 to May 2021 were included in this study. All patients were treated with traditional Chinese medicine for vaginal lavage combined with psychological nursing intervention. The treatment outcomes of the patients were observed, and the quality-of-life scores and depression of the patients before and after treatment were compared. Changes in T-lymphocyte subset-related indicators, changes in blood routine-related indicators, and changes in the detection level of tumor markers were compared with anxiety scores.

resultsAfter treatment, depression and anxiety were significantly reduced and the patient's quality of life significantly improved. After treatment, the patient's CD3

conclusionsTreating patients with cervical cancer with traditional Chinese medicine for vaginal lavage combined with psychological nursing can effectively improve the patient's immune function, effectively reduce the level of tumor marker CA125, increase the level of T-lymphocyte subsets, and improve the bone marrow hematopoietic function.
