Obstructing Colonic Mass: A Case of Recurrent Endometrial Cancer.

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
A 71-year-old female with a history of endometrial cancer presented to our hospital with bilateral lower quadrant abdominal pain, which had been worsening over the past two months. The pain was associated with constipation, pencil-thin stools, and a 60 lb weight loss. On physical examination, the patient had suprapubic and left lower quadrant abdominal tenderness. Contrast-enhanced CT scan revealed a 6 cm pelvic mass in the left lower quadrant. It was unclear if this mass was arising from the sigmoid colon or abutting it. A colonoscopy to further investigate the mass was pursued and this revealed a moderate 5 cm long stenosis in the sigmoid colon starting at 15 cm from the anal verge. The stenosis was not ulcerated but had a bluish/purplish hue to it circumferentially. Multiple biopsies were obtained from that area and these revealed architectural changes with mild fibrosis but no malignancy. The mass was further explored with CT-guided fine needle aspiration. The results obtained were positive for cytokeratin-7, CA-125, estrogen receptor protein, and PAX-8 confirming that the mass was endometrial in origin.
