1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Struma ovarii is an uncommon ovarian tumour, defined by the finding of thyroid tissue in the ovary, and more frequently found in teratomas. Symptoms of struma ovarii are nonspecific. The definite diagnosis is made by histological examination. The authors report the case of an asymptomatic 76-year-old female patient, whose ultrasonography, magnetic resonance and computed tomography suggested bilateral ovarian teratoma. Risk of Ovarian Malignancy Assessment score was high. She underwent exploratory laparotomy, peritoneal washing, total hysterectomy, bilateral adnexectomy and intra-operative frozen section. The final pathological report described bilateral mature cystic teratoma with benign struma ovarii. Surgery remains the best treatment.
