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

Ichthyosis uteri is a rare benign condition characterized by extensive squamous metaplasia of the endometrium. We present an unusual case of ichthyosis uteri with radiological features mimicking myometrial invasion of endometrial cancer, occurring in a 50-year-old postmenopausal woman who presented with persistent abnormal vaginal bleeding. Laboratory findings revealed elevated serum squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) antigen level of 11.5 ng/mL. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated an intrauterine lesion with apparent myometrial invasion, initially suggesting the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage IA endometrial cancer. The lesion showed low signal intensity on the T2-weighted image compared to normal endometrium and weak enhancement on the contrast-enhanced T1-weighted image. While the lesion showed high signal intensity on diffusion-weighted imaging, the apparent diffusion coefficient value (0.96 × 10
