Invasive Micropapillary Carcinoma of the Uterine Cervix.

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 herein present a case of uterine cervical invasive micropapillary carcinoma (IMPC) in a 35-year-old woman. She had neither specific symptoms nor any previous gynecological history. A cervical punch biopsy revealed a high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion and concurrent intestinal-type mucinous carcinoma. Based on the preoperative diagnosis of endocervical adenocarcinoma, she underwent radical hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection. Grossly, there was an ovoid, slightly elevated mass with surface nodularity in the lower endocervix, measuring 10 × 8 mm. Histologically, the tumor consisted predominantly of tufts of tumor cells arranged in micropapillary structures devoid of fibrovascular cores and surrounded by clear, empty, lacunar spaces between tumor cell nests and stroma. The IMPC component comprised 90% of the entire tumor volume. The greatest dimension and stromal invasion depth of the IMPC were 8 and 3 mm, respectively (FIGO stage IA2). Immunostaining revealed that mucin 1 (MUC1) surrounded each micropapillary structure, indicating the reverse epithelial polarity of the glandular cells. MUC1 was localized predominantly in the stroma-facing surface of the cell clusters, accentuating the outlines of the micropapillary structures by forming a distinct, characteristic band on this surface. In addition, targeted sequencing analysis of the IMPC revealed a missense
