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

objectiveTo analyse the trend of the disease burden of common malignancies of the female reproductive system and the influence of age, period and birth cohort in China from 1990 to 2019.

designWe used the joinpoint model based on the global burden of disease (GBD 2019) database to explore the trend of the burden of common malignancies of the female reproductive system in China from 1990 to 2019, and further analyzed the impact of age, period, and birth cohort using the age-period-cohort model.

settingGBD data from 1990 to 2019.

participantsData were publicly available and individuals were not involved. MAIN OUTCOMES: Outcomes included age standardised incidence rate, standardised mortality, standardised disability-adjusted life year (DALY), annual percentage change, average annual percentage change, age (period, cohort) effect coefficient, relative coefficient and SE. Akchi information criterion and Bayesian information criterion were used to estimate model goodness of fit.

resultsFrom 1990 to 2019, the standardised incidence and prevalence of cervical cancer and endometrial cancer increased, while the standardised mortality and DALY rate decreased. The standardised incidence, prevalence, mortality and DALY rates of ovarian cancer increased. The risk of cervical cancer, ovarian cancer and endometrial cancer increased first and then decreased with age, reaching its peak at ages 55, 70 and 55, respectively, while the risk of death increased with age. The risk of the onset and death of cervical cancer and ovarian cancer increased with the period, while those of endometrial cancer increased first and then decreased. The cohort with later female reproductive system malignancies had a lower risk of morbidity and mortality than the previous cohort.

conclusionFrom 1990 to 2019, the disease burden of malignant tumours in the female reproductive system in China was high. Relevant departments should pay attention to the prevention and treatment of malignant tumours in the reproductive system. Middle-aged and elderly women are the key target group for prevention and control.
