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

We report a deceptive presentation of Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Cervix in a 54-year-old postmenopausal woman who presented with postmenopausal bleeding associated with lower abdominal pain for a 3-month duration, with a normal-looking ectocervix. She was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma on a pap smear and cervical biopsy. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an irregular endometrial cavity contour, and a T2 hyperintense lesion was seen (2.3 × 0.8 cm) involving the posterior lip of the cervix at the junction of stroma and endocervix with a mural spread along the uterine myometrium. Histopathology after Wertheim's hysterectomy revealed a squamous cell carcinoma of the endocervix, Stage pT1b3, that had spread superficially to the endometrium, myometrium, and left salpinx. The detection of immunohistochemical expression of p16, p63, and negative for ER and PR in the lesions of the cervix and the endometrium suggests that these two lesions are etiologically related, favoring the possibility of endometrial SCC secondary to cervical SCC.
