Lesion-specific 3D-printed moulds for image-guided tissue multi-sampling of ovarian tumours: A prospective pilot study.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma (HGSOC) is the most prevalent and lethal subtype of ovarian cancer, but has a paucity of clinically-actionable biomarkers due to high degrees of multi-level heterogeneity. Radiogenomics markers have the potential to improve prediction of patient outcome and treatment response, but require accurate multimodal spatial registration between radiological imaging and histopathological tissue samples. Previously published co-registration work has not taken into account the anatomical, biological and clinical diversity of ovarian tumours. Methods: In this work, we developed a research pathway and an automated computational pipeline to produce lesion-specific three-dimensional (3D) printed moulds based on preoperative cross-sectional CT or MRI of pelvic lesions. Moulds were designed to allow tumour slicing in the anatomical axial plane to facilitate detailed spatial correlation of imaging and tissue-derived data. Code and design adaptations were made following each pilot case through an iterative refinement process. Results: Five patients with confirmed or suspected HGSOC who underwent debulking surgery between April and December 2021 were included in this prospective study. Tumour moulds were designed and 3D-printed for seven pelvic lesions, covering a range of tumour volumes (7 to 133 cm Conclusions: We developed and refined a computational pipeline that can model lesion-specific 3D-printed moulds from preoperative imaging for a variety of pelvic tumours. This framework can be used to guide comprehensive multi-sampling of tumour resection specimens.
