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.
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: To explore the correlation between abdominal fat and the occurrence risk of endometrial cancer (EC) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods: The clinical information of 120 PCOS patients receiving treatment in our hospital from March 2019 to April 2022 were included in this study. Patients were divided into two groups, endometrial cancer (EC, n=35) and normal group (NM, n=85). Statistical analysis included t-test, c2-test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. We analysed the data using logistic regression. The predictive accuracy and discriminative ability of the prediction model were assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) and calibration curves. Results: The incidence rate of EC in women with PCOS is 10.91% (12/110). Significant differences were found in waist circumference, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, body mass index (BMI), waist-hip ratio (WHR), insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), visceral fat area (VFA) oestrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), estradiol (E2), and luteinizing hormone (LH) between the two groups (P<0.05). No statistical difference was found in age, hip circumference, menopause, use of intrauterine device, progesterone (P) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) between the groups (P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that BMI, HOMA-IR, VFA and HER2 were independent influencing factors of EC in PCOS patients (P<0.05). The AUC of BMI, HOMA-IR, VFA, HER2 were 0.878 (95%CI: 0.810~0.946), 0.831 (95%CI: 0.751~0.911), 0.816 (95%CI: 0.704~0.929) and 0.737 (95%CI: 0.634,0.840), respectively. The model had more diagnostic effectiveness (AUC=0.973). Conclusions: In PCOS disease, high-level BMI, HOMA-IR, VFA, and positive HER2 show an increased risk in the incidence of EC. These findings suggest that BMI, HOMA-IR, VFA, and HER2 are potential markers for Risk assessment of EC.HER2: Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2, E2: estradiol, P: progesterone, LH: Luteinizing hormone, FSH: Follicle-stimulating hormone.
