Clinicopathological Characteristics of Gastric-type Endocervical Adenocarcinoma Misdiagnosed as an Endometrial, Ovarian or Extragenital Malignancy, or Mistyped as Usual-type Endocervical Adenocarcinoma.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
BACKGROUND/
aimThe diagnosis of gastric-type endocervical adenocarcinoma (GEA) is challenging because its differential diagnosis includes not only gynecological tumors, but also extragenital tumors. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe reviewed the electronic medical records and all available slides to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of eight misdiagnosed GEA cases.
resultsThree tumors were initially misdiagnosed as endometrial carcinoma. They displayed extensive endomyometrial involvement and complex glandular architecture, but no severe nuclear pleomorphism. Another three tumors were misclassified as usual-type endocervical adenocarcinoma because of mucin-poor, pseudoendometrioid glands, apical mitotic figures, and karyorrhectic debris. The two remaining tumors presenting as adnexal masses mimicked primary ovarian mucinous tumor and metastatic cholangiocarcinoma.
conclusionThe varying pathological characteristics of GEA reflect the variability in clinical manifestations and its diagnostic difficulties. It is challenging to make an accurate diagnosis based solely on histological features. When suspecting GEA, clinicians should consider more comprehensively the clinicopathological context, along with immunostaining results.
