Application value of 18F-FDG PETCT imaging in the clinical initial diagnosis and follow-up of primary lesions of cervical cancer.
Article in Translational cancer research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
backgroundCervical cancer is a common malignant tumor in gynecology with a high death rate. his study aims to analyze the application value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose imaging examination (18F-FDG PETCT) imaging in the initial clinical diagnosis and follow-up examination of cervical cancer.
methodsThe clinical data of 71 patients with cervical lesions who were admitted to our hospital from March 2017 to March 2019 were retrospectively collected all patients underwent 18F-FDG PETCT examination. The results of the pathological examination were a benchmark to calculate the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 18F-FDG PETCT imaging in the diagnosis of primary lesions of cervical cancer and the diagnosis of postoperative recurrence, residual, and metastasis.
resultsThere were 39 patients initially suspected, and 30 cases were diagnosed as cervical cancer by pathological examination, including 22 cases with squamous cell carcinoma, 4 cases with adenocarcinoma, 3 cases with carcinoma in situ, and 1 case with adenosquamous carcinoma. The maximum standard uptake (SUVmax) value was (10.36±5.22), and the patient's lesions showed different degrees of increase of 18F-FDG metabolism. The necrotic area in the patient's lesion showed reduced/defect metabolism. The sensitivity of 18F-FDG PETCT imaging in the diagnosis of primary lesions of cervical cancer was 86.66%, specificity was 44.44%, and accuracy was 76.92%. In the 32 cases followed up for monitoring after the operation, 16 cases showed recurrence, metastasis, residual and other conditions, and 7 cases showed local recurrence/metastasis. 18F-FDG PETCT images showed: abnormal widening of the cervix, stump nodules/mass in the vagina, and rectal and bladder infiltration. All patients with local recurrence were treated with local tissue biopsy or surgical resection under 18F-FDG PETCT image localization. The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic coincidence rate of 18F-FDG PETCT imaging for postoperative follow-up of cervical cancer patients were 100%, 75.00% and 87.50%, respectively.
conclusionsFor patients with cervical cancer who are initially diagnosed or followed up, they can all be tested by 18F-FDG PETCT imaging, which can provide a reference for the formulation of diagnosis and treatment plan and the evaluation of prognosis.
