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

objectiveTo investigate the predictors of residual disease in a hysterectomy following a loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 3.

methodsThis retrospective study identified 421 patients with histologically confirmed CIN 3 who underwent LEEP and subsequently had a hysterectomy within 6 months. The clinical data included age, parity, type of transformation zone, cytology results, human papillomavirus (HPV) genotype test, endocervical curettage (ECC), and pathological data of LEEP and hysterectomy were obtained from the medical records. A logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between the variables and the risk of residual disease in the hysterectomy samples.

results186 (44.18%) patients had residual disease in the hysterectomy specimens. The predictive markers of residual disease following LEEP included positive ECC, positive margin of the samples from LEEP, type II or III transformation zone, HPV16 and HPV18 infection, and other high-risk HPV. HPV-18 positivity (OR, 7.13; 95% CI, 3.49 to 14.56; p < 0.001) and type III transformation zone (OR, 6.37; 95% CI, 2.91 to 13.94; p < 0.001) were the most indicative of residual disease following LEEP.

conclusionPositive high-risk HPV, particularly HPV18, positive ECC, the positive margin of specimens from LEEP, and type II or III transformation zone were reliable prognostic markers of residual disease following a LEEP for CIN 3.
