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

Background: Endometrial atypical hyperplasia (EAH) and endometrial cancer (EC) are increasingly detected in asymptomatic postmenopausal women. This often leads to delayed treatment. Risk stratification remains challenging, and single-factor models may not accurately identify high-risk individuals. This study aimed to develop and validate a multivariable prediction model for identifying EAH or EC in asymptomatic postmenopausal women. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included asymptomatic postmenopausal women with endometrial pathology records from the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, China (2021-2024). Candidate risk factors included demographics, clinical characteristics, and hematological parameters. The primary outcome was a composite of histologically-confirmed EAH or EC. Multivariable Poisson regression with robust variance was then employed to identify independent risk factors for this composite outcome. Risk - stratified models were developed by calculating predicted probabilities for key combinations of risk factors. Results: Among 928 patients [median age: 59 years, IQR (interquartile range): 55-65; median BMI: 23.4 kg/m Discussion: The risk of EAH and EC among asymptomatic postmenopausal women varies significantly based on clinical factors. This risk-stratified modeling approach delivers individualized risk estimates to inform endometrial biopsy decisions, facilitating personalized patient management.
