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

Cervical cancer is one of the common gynaecological malignancies seen in women. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), cervical cancer is the fourth most common malignancy encountered in women worldwide. Squamous cell carcinoma followed by adenocarcinoma is the most common histological subtype of cervical cancer. Apart from nodal metastases, the usual sites of metastases are the lungs, bones, and liver. Spleen, breast, and skin have been reported as rare sites of metastasis in cases of cervical cancer. Spleen is a rare site of metastasis not only in cases of carcinoma cervix but also in various other solid tumour malignancies. Splenic metastases being uncommon are difficult to characterise using routine imaging modalities. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) evaluation helps to detect these rare sites of metastasis.
