Development and validation of a predictive model of abnormal uterine bleeding associated with ovulatory dysfunction: a case-control study.

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.
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
backgroundAbnormal uterine bleeding associated with ovulatory dysfunction (AUB-O) is a typical gynecological disease that can affect women of various ages. Being able to identify women at risk of AUB-O could allow physicians to take timely action. This study aimed to identify the influencing factors of AUB-O in Chinese women, and then develop and validate a predictive model.
methodsIn this multicenter case-control study, 391 women with AUB-O and 838 controls who came from nine hospitals in Zhejiang province were recruited between April 2019 and January 2022. All the participants completed a structured questionnaire including general characteristics, lifestyle and habits, menstrual and reproductive history, and previous diseases. The predictive model was developed on a group of 822 women and validated on a group of 407 women. Logistic regression was adopted to investigate the influencing factors and develop the model, and validation was then performed.
resultsThe independent predictive factors of AUB-O were age (OR 1.073, 95% CI 1.046-1.102, P < 0.001), body mass index (OR 1.081, 95% CI 1.016-1.151, P = 0.015), systolic blood pressure (OR 1.016, 95% CI 1.002-1.029, P = 0.023), residence (OR 2.451, 95% CI 1.727-3.478, P < 0.001), plant-based diet (OR 2.306, 95% CI 1.415-3.759, P < 0.001), fruits eating (OR 1.887, 95% CI 1.282-2.776, P = 0.001), daily sleep duration (OR 0.819; 95% CI 0.708-0.946, P = 0.007), multiparous (parity = 1, OR 0.424, 95% CI 0.239-0.752, P = 0.003; parity > 1, OR 0.450, 95% CI 0.247-0.822, P = 0.009), and history of ovarian cyst (OR 1.880, 95% CI 1.305-2.710, P < 0.001). The predictive ability (area under the curve) in the development group was 0.77 (95% CI 0.74-0.81), while in the validation group it was 0.73 (95% CI 0.67-0.79). The calibration curve was in high coincidence with the standard curve in the development group, and similar to the validation group. A tool for AUB-O risk calculation was created.
conclusionsNine influencing factors and a predictive model were proposed in this study, which could identify women who are at high risk of developing AUB-O. This finding highlights the importance of early screening and the lifelong management of ovulatory disorders for women.
