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

introductionEndometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) is a rare malignancy of uterine in middle aged women. There are numerous subtypes for ESS which share the same clinical picture of uterine bleeding and pelvic pain. Consequently, diagnosis and treatment modalities of LG-ESS with metastasis are challenging. However, both molecular and immunological study of samples can be useful. CASE PRESENTATION: In this case study, we report a 52-year-old woman presenting with the chief complaint of unusual uterine bleeding. There was no specific finding in her past medical history. The CT study revealed enlarged bilateral ovary with a significantly large left ovarian mass and suspicious mass in uterus. By the diagnosis of ovarian mass, patient went under total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO), greater omentectomy, and appendectomy followed by post-op hormone therapy. Her follow-up was uneventful. The IHC and pathological study of samples revealed incidental LG-ESS uterus mass with metastasis to ovaries despite her primary diagnosis. DISCUSSION: LG-ESS has low metastasis rate. Surgical modalities and neoadjuvant therapies are recommended base on the stage of ESS. In the following study, we represent a case of incidental LG-ESS with bilateral ovarian invasion who was initially diagnosed as an ovarian mass.

conclusionOur patient was successfully managed by surgical intervention. Despite scarcity of LG-ESS, it is advised to consider LG-ESS as a differential diagnosis in management of patients with a uterus mass with bilateral ovarian involvement.
