MR imaging findings of low-grade serous carcinoma of the ovary: comparison with serous borderline tumor.
Article in Japanese journal of radiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeTo assess MR imaging findings of low-grade serous carcinoma (LGSC) of the ovary compared with those of serous borderline tumor (SBT).
methodsTwenty-four patients with histopathologically proven 7 LGSCs and 25 SBTs who underwent preoperative MR imaging were included. We retrospectively reviewed MR images and compared MR findings between the two pathologies.
resultsThe predominantly solid lesions were marginally more frequent in LGSCs than in SBTs (43% vs. 8%, p = 0.057). All predominantly cystic LGSCs were multilocular cystic lesions with mural nodules. Predominantly solid LGSCs exhibited pure solid masses in 2 of 3 and solid masses with intratumoral cysts in 1 of 3. Papillary growth pattern with internal branching was observed only in 18 of 25 SBTs. Signal intensity ratio on T2-weighted images (4.48 ± 1.55 vs. 8.40 ± 3.53, p < 0.01) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values (1.12 ± 0.21 vs. 1.73 ± 0.27 × 10
conclusionCompared with SBTs, lower signal intensity on T2-weighted images and lower ADC values were characteristic features of solid components in LGSCs. Papillary growth pattern with internal branching was not observed in LGSCs.
