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

Endometrial cancer is one of the most common gynaecological cancers in the developed countries. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of hypertension on endometrial cancer risk. Databases: PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library were searched from January 2000 to June 2024. We used DerSimonian-Laird random-effects model for analysis. Risk estimates were extracted by two authors and summarized using meta-analytic methods. A total of 26 observational studies with 207,502 endometrial cancer cases were included in the study. Overall meta-analysis demonstrates significant association between hypertension and endometrial cancer risk (RR = 1.37, 95% CI: 1.27-1.47, p < 0.001). Subgroup analysis of the risk of endometrial cancer shows statistically significant higher risk in patients with BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2, diabetics, women who had their first menstrual period at the age of 11 years or earlier, and who had never given birth. Findings of this comprehensive review and meta-analysis indicate that hypertension is associated with higher overall risk of endometrial cancer.
