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

Struma ovarii comprises 1% of all ovarian tumors and 3% of ovarian teratomas. It occurs in older females. Struma ovarii is often asymptomatic, unilateral, and accidentally detected through abdominal ultrasound or computed tomography. It presents with palpable abdominal pain or irregular menstrual cycles. Generally, it is treated with surgical resection, even though the best procedure in these cases remains under discussion. In this study, we present a case of a 28-year-old female with severe pain in the right iliac fossa. Physical examination and radiological images showed a large mass. A bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy with omentectomy, a total mass resection, and an abdominal hysterectomy were performed. A biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of a follicular thyroid tumor. The management decision is based on clinical and pathological data. This is particularly challenging due to its rarity and the insufficient guidelines regarding the management of this type of cancer.
