Exploring the Pathological Journey of Superficial Spreading Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Cervix Into the Endometrium.
Article in Cureus, 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
The superficial extension of cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) into the endometrium by replacing the endometrial glands is rare, as it normally spreads by invading the stroma or by lymphatic invasion. We present a case of a postmenopausal female complaining of vaginal discharge followed by vaginal bleeding. Microscopy showed a superficial spreading SCC of the cervix extending superficially into the endometrium with focal myometrial invasion. Carcinoma in situ changes were observed in the vagina. Based on the Fluhmann criteria and ancillary immunohistochemical testing, it was concluded to be an extension of cervical SCC and not primary endometrial carcinoma. The importance of this entity has not been given because of its low incidence.
