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

Colorectal invasion is an unusual late-stage presentation of metastatic primary mucinous ovarian cancer. In this article, we report a fatal case of a 65-year-old female who presented to our clinic with progressive weight loss, severe constipation, and postprandial early satiety. She underwent an esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and colonoscopy. Direct visualization during colonoscopy revealed acute inflammation with ulceration and highly atypical glands in the ileocecal valve. The initial biopsy was unremarkable, and a repeat biopsy was performed due to high suspicion of malignancy. The repeat biopsy revealed poorly differentiated, invasive colon adenocarcinoma with partial mucinous features. The patient was referred to the surgery service. While planning for surgical resection, they obtained a CT abdomen and pelvis, which revealed a large ovarian mass and peritoneal carcinomatosis. Immunohistochemistry for the tumor cells was positive for pancytokeratin and cytokeratin 7, partially positive (up to 20%) for cytokeratin 20 and CDX2, and negative for estrogen receptors, monoclonal carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and synaptophysin. This immunophenotypic pattern is strongly consistent with metastatic mucinous carcinoma of ovarian origin.
