Real-time contrast-enhanced ultrasound-guided percutaneous biopsy in the diagnosis of ovarian metastasis of gallbladder carcinoma: a case report.
Article in Journal of ovarian research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundMultiple-organ primary tumors can invade the ovary through lymphatic and hematogenous routes, presenting as ovarian Krukenberg tumors, but these rarely originate from the gallbladder. Krukenberg tumors can present similar to primary ovarian tumors; however, their treatments are completely different. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 62-year-old Chinese woman presented with abdominal distension for six months and weight loss of five kilograms for two months. DIAGNOSES: Based on multiple imaging examinations, the patient was preliminarily diagnosed with a malignant tumor of unknown origin with multiple metastases (omentum). To identify the origin of the malignancy, the patient underwent real-time contrast-enhanced ultrasound-guided percutaneous biopsy. The results revealed a perihepatic hypoechoic lesion and right adnexal mass that were both metastatic adenocarcinomas from the gallbladder.
interventionsThe patient initially received chemotherapy with gemcitabine and cisplatin instead of surgery. However, the tumor increased in size on re-examination after two cycles, so the treatment was shifted to a combination regimen with durvalumab for six cycles. OUTCOMES: The treatment proceeded smoothly, with no recurrence or obvious progression of the cancer during follow-up.
conclusionsDifferentiating between primary and metastatic ovarian tumors is important. Early diagnosis and effective treatment options are essential for patient survival. CEUS-guided percutaneous biopsy is a valuable procedure for patients with multiple metastases who cannot tolerate surgery.
