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

Objectives The primary objective of this study was to compare the screening accuracy of AI assessment with colposcopy. Secondary objectives included comparing the triaging accuracy of AI and colposcopy assessments against histopathology. Methodology This prospective, single-arm screening test assessment study was conducted at the obstetrics and gynecology department of Bharati Vidyapeeth (Deemed to be University) Medical College in Pune, India. The study included sexually active, nonpregnant women aged 25-65 years visiting the OPD for per-speculum examination. Women with a clinically unhealthy cervix detected during the examination were counseled, and those who provided consent were enrolled. Patients with a history of prior cervical cancer treatment or hysterectomy were excluded. A total of 130 women were enrolled. Each participant underwent colposcopy, Smart Scope
