Placental site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT): a case report and review of the literature.
Review in Pathologica, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Placental site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT), also known as atypical choriocarcinoma, syncytioma, chorioepitheliosis or trophoblastic pseudotumor, is a rare gestational trophoblastic disease (0.25-5% of all trophoblastic tumors) and it is composed by neoplastic proliferation of intermediate trophoblasts at placental implantation site. It consists of aggregates or sheets of large, polyhedral to round, predominantly mononucleated cells with a characteristic vascular and myometrial invasion. Main differential diagnoses are gestational choriocarcinoma (GC) and epitelioid trophoblastic tumor (ETT). We present a case of PSTT in a 25-year-old woman. Neoplastic cells showed moderate/high nuclear pleomorphism, abundant amphophilic, eosinophilic and clear cytoplasm, numerous mitotic figures (10 mitoses/10 HPF), and myometrial invasion. Other features are necrosis, vascular invasion with replacement of myometrial vessels by tumor cells and hemorrhage. The patient showed typical low serum β-hCG levels and high serum humane placental lactogen (hPL) levels.
