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

Background: Brenner tumor is a rare epithelial ovarian neoplasm that accounts for 2-3% of all ovarian neoplasms. Herein, we report the first case of thoracic spinal metastasis of recurrent Brenner tumor without local recurrence.Case Description.A 70-year-old female presented with a feeling of abdominal distension. Computed tomography revealed cystic lesions in her bilateral ovaries. Blood examination revealed high CA-125 [74.9 U/ml]. We excised bilateral ovaries, uterus, and omentum. Borderline Brenner tumor was diagnosed [Ki-67 labeling index: 10 %]. Follow-up abdominal echo and CA-125 examination revealed no local recurrence. 26 months later she developed paraplegia. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed tumor in the 5th-9th thoracic vertebra and compression of spinal cord at the 6th thoracic vertebra level. Her paraplegia was progressive. We performed semi-urgent partial resection of tumor and release of spinal cord compression. Spinal metastasis from Brenner tumor was diagnosed [Ki-67 labeling index: 50-60 %]. She received adjuvant radiation of 30 Gy in 10 fractions to the 4th-10th thoracic vertebra. After radiation and rehabilitation, she was discharged home on foot. She received adjuvant radiation and chemotherapy but died 11 months after spinal surgery. An autopsy has not been performed on her, and the cause of death is unknown. Conclusion: We report the first case of thoracic metastasis of recurrent Brenner tumor without local recurrence.
