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

The incidence of endometrial cancer (EC) is increasing worldwide, but the specific mechanism of coagulation dysfunction in EC is not fully understood. The objective of the present study was to explore the relationship between autonomic nervous system function and coagulation function in patients with EC using heart rate variability (HRV) analysis. The study included 100 patients with EC who were treated at the Department of Gynecological Oncology of The First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University (Bengbu, China) from December 2021 to March 2023. A 5-min resting electrocardiogram was collected from each patient to analyze HRV parameters, including the time domain parameters standard deviation of the normal-normal intervals (SDNN) and root mean square of successive interval differences (RMSSD), and the frequency domain parameters low-frequency power and high-frequency power (HF). Blood samples were submitted to biochemistry tests to measure coagulation markers, namely prothrombin time (PT), international normalized ratio of PT (PT-INR), prothrombin activity (PTA), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and fibrinogen. Bivariate Spearman correlation analyses revealed that PT, PT-INR and APTT were significantly positively correlated with SDNN, RMSSD and HF, while PTA was significantly negatively correlated with RMSSD. Following adjustments for confounding factors, namely age, body mass index, menopause, ligation of the fallopian tubes, diabetes, hypertension, adjuvant chemotherapy and mean heart rate, linear regression analysis demonstrated that SDNN, RMSSD and HF were independent factors influencing PT and PT-INR in patients with EC. The findings of the present study indicate that certain HRV parameters correlate with coagulation markers in EC and provide new insight into the occurrence of cancer-associated coagulation dysfunction.
