Clinical analysis of 52 adolescent patients with ovarian masses ≥10 cm in diameter.

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
objectiveTo investigate the clinical characteristics and treatment of large ovarian masses in adolescents.
methodsAdolescents with large ovarian masses (≥10 cm in diameter) who were treated in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital from March 2010 to December 2018 were retrospectively assessed.
resultsFifty-two female patients (mean age: 16.17±2.04 years [11-19 years]) were included and 19 (36.5%) presented with abdominal pain. The blood flow signal rate in ultrasonography was significantly different among benign, borderline and malignant ovarian masses, unlike strong echo, dotted echo and septation rates. Carbohydrate antigen 125 positivity rates were significantly different among pathological types and the endometriotic cyst group showed the highest value (75.0%). Alpha-fetoprotein positivity rates were also different among pathological types. For ovarian cystectomy, 14 and 32 patients underwent laparotomy and laparoscopy, respectively. Mass diameters were significantly higher in the laparotomy group and the operative duration was significantly shorter in the laparoscopy group. There were no significant differences in intraoperative blood loss or postoperative recurrence rates between the two groups.
conclusionTeratomas constitute the greatest group of large ovarian masses in adolescents. Benign tumors should be treated by laparoscopic resection, while borderline or malignant tumors require individualized treatment of tumors and fertility-sparing treatments.
