Rapid progression from complete molar pregnancy to post-molar gestational trophoblastic neoplasia: a rare case report and literature review.
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 1 paper.
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: Post-molar gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (pGTN) develops in about 15% to 20% of complete hydatidiform mole (CMH). Commonly, pGTN is diagnosed based on hCG monitoring following the molar evacuation. To date, no detailed information is available on how fast can pGTN develop from CHM. However, the concurrence of CHM and pGTN is extremely rare. Case presentation: A 29-year-old woman presented to the gynecology department with irregular vaginal bleeding and an elevated hCG serum level. Both ultrasound and MRI showed heterogeneous mass in uterine cavity and myometrium. Suction evacuation was performed and histologic examination of the evacuated specimen confirmed complete hydatidiform mole. Repeated ultrasound showed significant enlargement of the myometrium mass one week after the evacuation. pGTN with prognostic score of 4 was then diagnosed and multi-agent chemotherapy regimen implemented with a good prognosis. Conclusion: In rare cases, CMH can rapidly progress into pGTN. Imaging in combination with hCG surveillance seems to play a vital role guiding timely diagnosis and treatment in the specific condition. Low-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) should be managed stratified according to the individual situation.
