Pathology of Struma Ovarii: A Report of 96 Cases.

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
Thyroid tissue is a relatively frequent component of mature teratoma and can occur in 5-20 % of cases. Struma ovarii is defined as ovarian goiter which comprises either entirely or predominantly thyroid tissue (>50 %). This also includes cases of mature teratoma with less than 50 % thyroid tissue but harboring thyroid-associated malignancy. A total of 118 patients with mature teratoma containing thyroid tissue were identified at our institution (1989 to 2014). Ninety-six cases were diagnosed struma ovarii, including 10 cases of papillary thyroid carcinoma, 1 case of highly differentiated follicular carcinoma of ovarian origin (HDFCO), 5 cases of strumal carcinoid, and 80 cases of struma ovarii (53 cases of thyroid-only struma ovarii). Six cases had diffuse adenomatous hyperplasia, and seven cases had focal adenomatous hyperplasia. There was no recurrence on follow-up except one of the papillary thyroid carcinomas. Concurrent primary ovarian lesions included: serous cystadenoma--3, mucinous cystadenoma--4, Brenner tumor--3, thecoma--2, ovarian fibroma--1, and focal hilus cell hyperplasia--4 cases. In this series, papillary thyroid carcinoma and strumal carcinoid were the most common well-differentiated neoplasm/malignancies arising in struma ovarii; these demonstrate a minimal or no aggressive clinical behavior.
