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

Trichomonas vaginitis (TV) is the most common non-viral sexually transmitted infection (STI) worldwide. The high prevalence of TV combined with mild or asymptomatic early symptoms leads to clinical vulnerability from delayed diagnosis. Latent infection can increase the incidence of pelvic infections, infertility, and adverse pregnancy complications. Data from 898 women who underwent vaginal flora testing from June 2014 to December 2014 were used to create a nomogram to assess the risk of TV in women in order to guide TV prevention and clinical intervention. The prediction model was evaluated in terms of identification, calibration, and clinical utility using the C-index, calibration plots, decision curve analysis, and internal validation. Predictors in the TV nomogram included age, occupation, yearly income, tea drinking, bathing frequency, menopause, spontaneous abortion, use of contraceptives, history of gynecological surgery, and HPV infection. The C-index of the TV risk prediction model was 0.732 (95% confidence interval: 0.695-0.768). It showed good discriminatory and predictive power. Decision curve analysis indicated that the nomogram had a good net benefit when the threshold probability of TV in women was 2-80%. The established TV prediction model easily, accurately, and quickly predicts the risk of TV onset.
