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

We describe an unusual presentation of a rare Leydig tumor presenting in bilateral ovaries that are otherwise normal in size for postmenopausal women. A 66-year-old woman presented with postmenopausal bleeding and during her work-up acutely developed clitoromegaly. Her diagnostic work-up revealed a 1.8 cm left ovarian complex cyst and extremely elevated testosterone levels. Management included hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Final pathology revealed Leydig tumors in the bilateral ovaries. This case discusses a rare presentation of a rare tumor and highlights the importance of a thorough examination of the female genitalia and investigation for root cause.
