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

backgroundPrevious studies have examined the associations between individual foods or nutrients, but few studies have considered dietary patterns associated with ovarian cancer (OC) survival.

methodsIn a prospective cohort study, we examined the association between pre-diagnosis and post-diagnosis overall diet, including changes from pre-diagnosis to post-diagnosis, and overall survival (OS) in 560 patients with OC. Dietary intake was collected using a valid 111-item food frequency questionnaire. Principal component analysis was performed to determine the dietary patterns. Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to assess the hazard ratio (HRs) and 95% confidence interval (CIs).

resultsTwo dietary patterns were identified: Balanced and nutritious pattern and Energy-dense pattern. The highest tertile of the post-diagnosis Balanced and nutritious pattern scores was related to better OS compared with the lowest tertile (HR = 0.40, 95% CI = 0.17-0.95, P

conclusionsGreater adherence to the Balanced and nutritious pattern as well as less adherence to the Energy-dense pattern from pre-diagnosis to post-diagnosis were associated with better OC survival.
