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: We investigated the relationship between the degree of fibrosis and endometrial cancer (EC) by calculating the fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) score, a noninvasive marker for measuring the severity of liver fibrosis. Materials and Methods: Liver function tests, platelet (PLT) values, abdominal ultrasonography (USG), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reports were analyzed retrospectively before, after, and at diagnosis in patients with EC. Results: The study included 38 patients diagnosed with EC. The median FIB-4 score was calculated as 1.15 (minimum: 0.46-maximum: 3.72). When endometroid (type 1 EC) and nonendometroid (type 2 EC) were compared, the FIB-4 score was higher in type one patients (1.16 [0.46-3.72] and 1.01 [0.53-2.96], respectively). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups ( Conclusion: FIB-4 score was higher in patients with type 1 EC, which is more associated with obesity and hormones. In addition, prediagnostic values of GGT and PLT were statistically significantly higher in the type 1 group. Our study needs further studies to support FIB-4 score and biochemical GGT and PLT as biochemical markers in patients with type 1 EC.
