Malignant struma ovarii with thyroid-type papillary and poorly differentiated carcinoma: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundMalignant struma ovarii is a very rare type of gynecologic cancer. Although its most common histological subtype is a pure type of papillary thyroid carcinoma containing two components, papillary carcinoma and poorly differentiated carcinoma, malignant struma ovarii is still extremely rare. As a result, the optimal treatment for this type of tumor remains uncertain due to its rarity. CASE PRESENTATION: A 62-year-old Japanese female presented with a pelvic tumor and clinical diagnosis of malignant tumor of the ovary. She underwent complete debulking surgery, total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and omentectomy. The histology of the ovarian tumor revealed malignant struma ovarii with thyroid-type papillary projections and poorly differentiated carcinoma. Because of the complete resection and the absence of distant metastasis, the patient did not receive any adjuvant therapy. At 24 months after surgery, she was free of disease.
conclusionThis is a rare case report of malignant struma ovarii, without recurrence, in which the component was papillary thyroid carcinoma mixed with poorly differentiated carcinoma. Foregoing adjuvant therapy might be one option for malignant struma ovarii in cases with complete resection and no distant metastasis. In addition, we should consider that long-term follow-up is needed for malignant struma ovarii.
