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

objectivesThe prediction model of para-aortic lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients with early cervical cancer was constructed based on the logistic regression (LR) and random forest (RF) algorithms in the machine learning algorithm. The prediction efficiencies of the two models were compared.

methodsThe clinical data of 204 patients with early cervical cancer in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University were retrospectively collected. The 204 patients were randomly divided into a training set and a verification set according to a ratio of 3:1. The training set was used to build the model. The verification set was used to evaluate model effectiveness. The para-aortic LNM prediction model of early cervical cancer was established by LR and RF. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), sensitivity, and specificity were used to evaluate the prediction performances of the two models.

resultsLR analysis showed that tumor diameter > 4 cm, choroidal aneurysm embolism, pelvic lymph node metastasis, and high preoperative squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag) level were risk factors for para-aortic LNM in patients with early cervical cancer (

conclusionsBoth LR and RF models based on machine learning algorithm have great predictive value in predicting early cervical cancer para-aortic lymph node metastasis.
