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

Endometrial cancer is one of the prevalent malignancies of the female reproductive system, with most cases presenting as low-grade tumors, especially if it is diagnosed during the early stages. As such, detection typically results in a good prognosis with the disease generally confined to the uterus. Unfortunately, recurrence and metastasis can still occur in a subset of patients who do not have proper medical follow-up or refuse to follow up, and when metastasis does occur, prognosis tends to be poor. Here, we would like to present a very severe case of endometrial cancer that has diffusely metastasized to the lungs. The purpose of this article is to emphasize the importance of medical check-ups, screening, and management in patients, especially with post-menopausal bleeding.
