Rare occurrence of ovarian choriocarcinoma: ultrasound evaluation.
Article in Journal of ultrasound, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Choriocarcinoma of the ovary is a rare, highly malignant tumor showing malignant trophoblastic cells and produces human chorionic gonadotropins. It can be classified as gestational and non-gestational choriocarcinoma. Non-gestational choriocarcinoma is extremely rare. Treatment is Methotrexate-based chemotherapy for the gestational type. This case study is a rare case of ovarian choriocarcinoma managed by surgical resection, followed by methotrexate-based chemotherapy, and aimed to evaluate the ultrasound characteristics of ovarian choriocarcinoma and how to arrive at the diagnosis. In cases with an elevated serum beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta hCG), the finding of a highly vascularized adnexal mass on ultrasound evaluation should be underlined as a clue for suspecting choriocarcinoma, particularly if the female was young with no marriage history or history of sexual intercourse and also to be highly considered in married females with history of repeated abortions, molar pregnancy or uterine choriocarcinoma.
