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: The aim of this study is to retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics of non-puerperal mastitis. Methods: A retrospective study was undertaken to investigate 724 cases of non-puerperal mastitis in patients hospitalized from April 2004 to December 2021 at the Mammary Gland Department of Shuguang Hospital, which is affiliated with Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Employing statistical methodologies including mean ± standard deviation, median, and one-sample Results: The average age of the 724 patients was 33.4 ± 5.5 years. Among them 54.94% were aged 30-39 years, 65.16% were within five years after delivery, and 62.56% were breastfeeding for less than 6 months. The BMI of patients aged 30-39 years was higher than that of the general Chinese population (P < 0.05). There was no significant correlation between smoking, oral contraceptives, trauma, and the incidence of the disease in this group. Conclusion: Non-puerperal mastitis is more prevalent among women of childbearing age, specifically those aged 30-39 years, who breastfed for less than 6 months within the first five years after childbirth. In this age group, higher BMI is linked to increased morbidity.
