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

Objective: Developing a non-invasive and reliable triage test for endometrial malignant lesions is an important goal, as it could help to reduce the number of invasive diagnostic procedures required and improve patient survival. We aimed to estimate the diagnostic value of DNA methylation levels in cervical cytological samples of endometrial cancer (EC) and endometrial atypical hyperplasia (AH). Methods: A total of 607 women who had indications for endometrial biopsy in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Cangzhou Central Hospital from October 2022 to April 2023 were enrolled in this study. The cervical exfoliated cells were collected for gene methylation before endometrial biopsy. Clinical information, tumor biomarkers, and endometrial thickness (ET) of transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS) were also collected. With endometrial histopathology as the gold standard, multivariate unconditional logistic regression was applied to analyze the risk factors of endometrial malignant lesions. The role of cysteine dioxygenase type 1 ( Results: Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that premenopausal ET ≥ 11 mm or postmenopausal ET ≥ 5 mm, Conclusion: The accuracy of cervical cytology DNA methylation is superior to that of other clinical indicators in the non-invasive examination of endometrial malignant lesions. DNA methylation combined with TVS can further improve the specificity and is a promising biomarker triage strategy in women with suspected endometrial lesions.
