Long-Term Follow-Up after Surgical Management for Atypical Endometriosis: A Series of Nine Cases.
Article in Case reports in oncology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveAtypical endometriosis is reported to possess a precancerous potential attributed to premalignant changes characterized by cytological atypia and architecture proliferation. Although the coexistence of atypical endometriosis and neoplasms has been reported, cases of atypical endometriosis transformation to carcinoma are rarely reported. The purpose of this case series was to evaluate the prognosis of atypical endometriosis. SUBJECTS AND
methodsData from nine women who underwent surgical treatment including cystectomy and salpingo-oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy and diagnosed with atypical endometriosis was analyzed. Between January 2006 and January 2018, the clinical characteristics and prognosis of atypical endometriosis were evaluated.
resultsDuring the follow-up period, eight of nine patients with atypical endometriosis did not develop malignant epithelial tumors, although one patient developed endometrioid carcinoma, grade 1, 48 months after her right laparoscopic cystectomy. The median overall survival period for all patients was 68 (range 13-131) months.
conclusionWhen we encounter the cases of atypical endometriosis, it is necessary to consider the possibility of ovarian cancer and carefully follow those cases for long periods.
