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

Very limited information exists about the role of p16/Ki67 dual staining on glandular cells in detecting glandular precancerous lesions and cervical adenocarcinoma. In this study, we investigated the diagnostic accuracy of p16/Ki67 dual staining for the detection of glandular and squamous lesions on the uterine cervix and for cancer of the upper reproductive tract. We performed a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data on 96 patients with glandular cell abnormalities. We analyzed the diagnostic accuracy of p16/Ki67 dual staining for atypical glandular cells, not otherwise specified (AGC-NOS); atypical glandular cells, favor neoplastic (AGC-FN); adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS); and A-CA (cervical adenocarcinoma). A separate analysis for the detection of squamous precancerous lesions and squamous-cell carcinoma (CIN3+) and for cancer of the upper reproductive tract (EC/OC) was performed. Among patients who had normal histology or a low-grade lesion on final analysis, only 8.5% had positive dual staining. On the other hand, 85.7% of patients with AIS+ on final histology had positive dual staining. The respective specificities of p16/Ki67 dual staining on AGC-NOS for the detection of AIS+ (adenocarcinoma in situ or cervical adenocarcinoma), CIN3+ and EC/OC were 91.5%, 88.7% and 86.4%. High specificity values of p16/Ki67 dual staining on cervical smears labelled as AGC-NOS for the detection of CIN3+ and AIS+ suggest that this method might be a useful addition in cervical cancer screening.
