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

Introduction: A liquid-based cytology test was introduced for cervical cancer screening in the 2000s worldwide. However, the concordance of diagnostic findings between the liquid-based cytology test and cervical biopsy has not been fully investigated, especially the overall failure rate on the diagnosis of cervical cancer and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) by cytology testing. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the concordance between ThinPrep cytology and histology test in the diagnosis of cervical cancer and HSIL in HPV-positive women. Methods: ThinPrep cytology test was performed in 2,472 HPV-positive women. Out of 2,472 HPV-positive women, the cervical biopsy was concurrently performed in 1,533 women. Data on the HPV type and the diagnostic findings of the ThinPrep cytology test and cervical biopsy were collected from our hospital electronic database. The concordance of diagnostic findings between cytology and histology was compared. Results: The rate of agreement in the diagnosis of the low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) or HSIL between cervical biopsy and ThinPrep cytology test was 58 or 49%. The overall false negative rate in the diagnosis of cervical cancer and HSIL by ThinPrep cytology test was 6%. However, when considering the total number of HPV-positive women diagnosed with cervical cancer ( Discussion: Our data demonstrated that in order to ensure an accurate diagnosis, an immediate cervical biopsy in women with cervical infection or ASCUS or LSIL should be strongly recommended in clinical practice.
