Gone but Not Forgotten: Ovarian Metastasis From a Colon Carcinoma in a 19-Year-Old Female.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Ovarian tumors occurring secondarily to metastatic colorectal carcinoma remain a rare occurrence. Since ovarian tumors remain predominantly asymptomatic in the initial stages, they are often diagnosed incidentally. The vague, non-specific symptoms elicited by a secondary ovarian carcinoma, coupled with a histopathology remarkably similar to that evoked by primary ovarian tumors, render its ascertainment a diagnostic challenge. We hereby delineate an interesting case of a metachronous ovarian adenocarcinoma in a 19-year-old patient with a prior medical history significant for colorectal carcinoma treated with hemicolectomy. Subsequent diagnostic workup divulged a mass in her left adnexal region, which was ultimately diagnosed as a metastatic colon adenocarcinoma to the ovary. Unfortunately, the patient succumbed to the aggressive malignancy and did not survive. We therefore aim to accentuate the diagnostic and therapeutic dilemmas fomented by ovarian adenocarcinomas that arise secondarily to primary colorectal cancers.
