Current management of gynecologic cancer in pregnancy
Article in Journal of the Turkish German Gynecological Association, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Cancer during pregnancy is a particularly challenging complication. The incidence has increased in recent years due to childbearing at advanced maternal ages due to career choices and/or the development of reproductive technology. Approximately two thirds of cancer cases during pregnancy comprise invasive cervical cancers and breast cancer. Cancer during gestation is characterized by a need for specialized treatment due to major changes in the hormonal profile (estrogen-progesterone), metabolism (enhancement of anabolism), hemodynamic changes (hyperdynamic circulation), immunologic changes (cell-mediated and humoral immunity), and increased angiogenesis (increased blood flow towards the uterus). Moreover, the management of such patients is based on the trimester of pregnancy, type and stage of cancer, and informed consent of the mother based on her wishes. The optimal treatment of cancer during pregnancy remains elusive because there are limited data from retrospective studies with small samples. As a result, it is crucial that data regarding survival of the women and long-term follow-up of the children from different cancer centers and registries are shared. This need is dictated by the fact that the incidence of cancer during pregnancy will continue to rise as child-bearing age continues to increase.
