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

Objective: This study aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics of patients undergoing endocervical curettage (ECC), identify factors influencing ECC positivity, and develop a predictive model to assess the risk of positive ECC results. The goal was to assist clinicians in making ECC decisions and reduce missed diagnoses of cervical lesions. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 953 patients who underwent colposcopically directed biopsy and ECC at the gynecology clinic of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University between October 2021 and September 2023 due to abnormal screening results. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify predictive factors for ECC positivity. An individualized prediction model for ECC positivity risk was developed using R Studio, and the model was subsequently evaluated and validated. Results: Among the 953 women, the ECC positive rate was 31.48% (300/953). Logistic regression analysis identified age ( Conclusions: The clinical prediction model developed in this study demonstrated good discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility. It can be used to evaluate the risk of ECC positivity in patients undergoing colposcopy, reduce missed diagnoses of cervical lesions, and aid clinicians in making ECC decisions.
