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

The congenital anomaly of the ovary is classified as a supernumerary, accessory, and lobulated ovary (LO). Although the former two entities are anomalies of abnormal location, LO is a category of morphological abnormality of the ovary. There are several case reports of this entity; however, most of them were diagnosed during surgery or histopathologically. One case report included ultrasound findings, with the diagnosis confirmed during surgery. We report a young-adult case with LO diagnosed and followed up with MR. Although LO is a rare congenital anomaly, it might be misdiagnosed as malignant tumors, as in our case. Therefore, radiologists and gynecologists should look out for this entity in MR findings, which can prove to be crucial in preventing unnecessary surgery.
