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: Understanding the impact of risk-reducing hysterectomy (RRH) on health-related quality-of-life is essential for informed decision-making around endometrial cancer prevention and has not been previously investigated. This study aimed to estimate health-related utilities in women who received RRH. Methods: PRESCORES was a multicentre cross-sectional study (ISRCTN17432105). We invited 4031 UK women ≥18 years with confirmed Lynch Syndrome, without prior gynaecological cancer, to participate between May 2023 and November 2024. The main outcome was a complete-case adjusted mean-difference in EQ-5D utility scores between participants who had undergone RRH or not, and by pre/post-menopausal age groups. Quality-of-life was measured at the time of survey completion, and retrospectively 4 months after surgery in the RRH-group. The Cancer-Worry Scale instrument was also evaluated by RRH group. Sensitivity analysis considered alternative statistical methods, multiple imputation, and restricting analysis to people 35-80 years. Findings: Analysis included 1120 participants: 529 had undergone RRH with a median age of 55 years (IQR 48-62), compared with 39 years (33-52) without RRH. The RRH-group was significantly more likely to have had cancer, physical co-morbidities, be parous and used aspirin. Adjusted mean utilities were slightly lower in the RRH than no-RRH group (difference -0.020, 95% CI -0.045 to 0.004; p = 0.11), much lower for premenopausal women (-0.041, -0.074 to -0.008), but similar for postmenopausal women (0.003, -0.036 to 0.042). Cancer-Worry-Scale scores were lower in the RRH group (mean-difference 0.48, 95% CI -0.807 to -0.157; p = 0.0037). Interpretation was robust to sensitivity analyses. Interpretation: Health-related quality-of-life in women with Lynch Syndrome is likely to be lower following RRH in younger, pre-menopausal women. This is relevant for counselling, RRH decision making, and economic evaluations of women with Lynch Syndrome, with increased endometrial cancer risk. Funding: Rosetrees Trust (CF1\100001) and Barts Charity (G-002286 and MRC0167).
