Clear Cell Adenocarcinoma Arising from Endometriosis in Abdominal Wall Cesarean Section Scar: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in International journal of women's health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Endometriosis developing in a cesarean section (CS) scar is an unusual event. Malignant transformation arising on the background of scar endometriosis in the abdominal wall is extremely rare. Herein we report a case of clear cell carcinoma (CCC) arising in the abdominal wall from endometriosis tissues following CS and review previous literature. Case Presentation: A 48-year-old gravida 2 para 1 female presented with an abdominal wall mass at her CS scar, which increased in size and became painful in the last 2 years. Physical examination showed a multilocular solid mass of about 13 cm, at the previous CS scar. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a 12.8cm × 7.7cm multi-septate cystic lesion on the anterior abdominal wall, and histological examination showed that CCC was caused by the transformation of abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE). Conclusion: An endometriosis-associated malignancy should be considered in the differential with any enlarging mass in the abdominal wall scar.
