Ovarian microcystic stromal tumors: clinical, radiological, and pathological studies of two cases.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
We observed two unusual cases of ovarian microcystic stromal tumors (MST). These two patients had no obvious clinical symptoms, and the imaging findings were separately diagnosed as cystic teratoma and ovarian malignant tumors. Significantly, during the operation, none of the pathologists considered the possibility of MST. The two cases showed similar morphological and immunophenotypic characteristics: some nests were made up of microcysts with round or oval shapes, and the cavity was bright and empty. In some areas, the cell nests of micro cysts were not obvious and were identified as solid cell nests. The tumor cells contained eosinophilic cytoplasms and neutral nuclei. Mitotic figures were rare. Immunohistochemistry indicated that the tumor cells were all positive for CD10, vimentin, WT1, and β-catenin, but negative for Cytokeratin, α-inhibin, CD99, ER, PR, S-100, EMA, CD56, CgA, Syn, Pax-8, Desmin, SMA, and calretinin. The Ki67 index was less than 5%. Based on the above characteristics, a diagnosis of ovarian MST was made after the operation. The final repeated CT scan revealed no recurrence during the post-surgical course. Here the clinical, radiological and pathological characteristics of these two cases diagnosed as ovarian MST are presented in order to help avoid future misdiagnosis and over-treatment.
