A case of ruptured ovarian metastasis of small cell lung cancer.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A 53-year-old woman with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) presented at our hospital complaining of abdominal distention. Blood tests revealed rapidly progressive normocytic anemia and elevated lactate dehydrogenase levels. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging revealed a left ovarian tumor and ascites. As her symptoms rapidly worsened, she underwent emergency surgery, which revealed a ruptured metastatic ovarian tumor of SCLC. Emergency surgery averted a life-threatening situation in this patient, and subsequent chemotherapy facilitated long-term survival. As seen from literature review, in female SCLC patients, ovarian metastasis and rupture is a rare but possible complication that should be considered because of its life-threatening nature.
