Hydropic leiomyoma-like ovarian tumor: a case report.
Article in Fukushima journal of medical science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Uterine leiomyomas, benign tumors common in reproductive-aged women, can display rare variants such as hydropic leiomyoma (HL), which exhibit unique histological features like zonal edema and increased vascularity. However, due to its rarity, comprehensive clinical knowledge about HL is limited. We report a case of a 49-year-old Japanese woman who was premenopausal and nulliparous, presenting with a two-year history of abdominal distension. An MRI scan revealed a 20 cm mass in the posterior part of the uterus, exhibiting characteristics suggestive of an ovarian tumor. During laparotomy, a cystic tumor connected with a swollen fibroid was found, and pathology confirmed HL. This case emphasizes that hydropic leiomyomas can mimic malignant tumors on ultrasonography due to their atypical features, necessitating additional evaluations using alternative imaging techniques or histopathological examinations for accurate diagnosis and appropriate management. The patient recovered uneventfully, broadening our understanding of HL's clinical presentation.
