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

A woman in her 40s presented with a 3-month history of lower abdominal pain and intermenstrual bleeding. Ultrasound of the pelvis disclosed a 4 cm left adnexal mass. An MRI of the pelvis revealed a 2.2×3.6×2.4 cm solid, enhancing left ovarian mass. Due to high suspicion for malignancy, she underwent laparoscopic left salpingo-oophorectomy and resection of the tumour. Histopathology revealed papillary thyroid carcinoma in the background of struma ovarii as confirmed by thyroglobulin and thyroid transcription factor-1 positivity on immunohistochemistry. BRAF mutation analysis was negative. An ultrasound of the thyroid gland showed two low-risk nodules. An iodine-123 whole-body scan showed normal uptake in the thyroid gland. Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) was 1.070 mcIU/mL (0.450-4.500), and thyroglobulin was 6.8 ng/mL (1.5-38.5). We risk-stratified this patient as low risk for recurrence. Risk stratification of malignant struma ovarii is essential to determine suitable thyroid targeting adjuvant therapy and reduce the risk of recurrence.
