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

Background: Cervical cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women. However, in developing countries, the primary focus for cervical cancer prevention and control remains on the timely detection and treatment of precancerous lesions. This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of colposcopic diagnosis of cervical intraepithelial lesions and analyze the factors influencing its accuracy. Methods: This study collected data from 512 eligible patients who visited the gynecology outpatient clinic of the Second Hospital of Jilin University from January 2022 to August 2023. The final diagnosis was based on the highest grade observed in both biopsy pathology and postoperative pathology. A self-controlled, retrospective analysis was conducted to evaluate the accuracy of colposcopic diagnosis. Univariate analysis was used to assess the impact of factors such as menopausal status, duration of menopause, high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) genotypes, and transformation zone (TZ) types on the accuracy of colposcopic diagnosis of cervical lesions. Result: The overall colposcopy diagnostic concordance rate was 78.71%. The concordance rates between the premenopausal and postmenopausal groups differed significantly ( Conclusion: Factors such as menopausal status, duration of menopause, HR-HPV genotypes, and TZ types influence the accuracy of colposcopic diagnosis. Therefore, a comprehensive evaluation incorporating these factors should be performed in clinical practice to enhance diagnostic accuracy.
