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: This study aimed to analyze the association between the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) and the risk of gynecological cancers using data collected from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) between 2011 and 2018. Methods: The data for this study were obtained from NHANES, conducted between 2011 and 2018, and included a total of 8,380 women. To examine the association between the Dietary Inflammatory Index and gynecological cancers, weighted multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed, using DII both as a continuous variable and as a categorical variable divided into tertiles. Subgroup analyses stratified by DII and gynecological cancer characteristics were conducted to further explore this association. Additionally, restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis was applied to evaluate potential non-linear relationships between DII and gynecological cancer risk. Results: Among the 8,380 women included in the analysis, the mean age was 47.02 (SD: 16.91) years, and 196 participants self-reported a diagnosis of gynecological cancer. In fully adjusted models, DII was significantly positively associated with the prevalence of gynecological cancer, whether analyzed as a continuous variable (OR = 1.15, 95% CI: 1.00-1.33, Conclusion: Our findings suggest that higher DII scores are positively associated with an increased risk of gynecological cancer. These results contribute to the existing literature and underscore the need for further validation through larger prospective cohort studies.
