Clinicopathological Characteristics of Microscopic Tubal Intraepithelial Metastases from Adenocarcinoma and Small Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of the Uterine Cervix.
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/
aimSome metastatic tumors that involve the fallopian tube show intraepithelial spread, mimicking primary tubal neoplasm and representing a potential diagnostic pitfall. In this study, we aimed to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of tubal intraepithelial metastasis (IEM) from cervical carcinoma. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe analyzed the clinical features, histological features, and immunophenotypes of IEMs in five patients with cervical carcinoma.
resultsThis study included usual-type (1/5), mucinous-type (1/5), and gastric-type (2/5) endocervical adenocarcinomas and small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (1/5) cases. None of the patients had ovarian metastasis, but metastatic tumor cells spread along the tubal mucosal surface and partially replaced the lining epithelium. Histological features of metastatic tumors closely resembled those of the primary tumors in all cases.
conclusionTubal IEM can mimic various tubal lesions including serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma. Morphological consistency between the primary and metastatic tumors and immunostaining help guide the differential diagnosis of challenging intraepithelial lesions of the fallopian tube.
