A report of twenty cases of ovarian Brenner tumor and literature review: a case series study.
Review in BMC women's health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundTo explore the clinical characteristics of ovarian Brenner tumors and provide some basis for the treatment regimen of ovarian Brenner tumors.
methodsA retrospective analysis of the pathology database of surgical specimens at the Huzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital from September 2008 to February 2023 was conducted. Patients who were pathologically diagnosed with ovarian Brenner tumors were included. Clinical data of patients was collected, and their diagnostic and treatment characteristics were summarized and analyzed.
resultsA total of 20 cases were included in this study, all of which were histologically confirmed by surgical pathology. Among them, 8 cases (40%) were combined with serous, mucinous cystadenoma, or simple cyst. One case presented with a benign ovarian Brenner tumor combined with mucinous cystadenoma, underwent right adnexectomy, and relapsed 5 years later as a malignant Brenner tumor (MBT) coexisting with ovarian squamous cell carcinoma. Multiple tumor markers were elevated malignantly, with CA199 being the most significant. Treatments included unilateral adnexectomy in 7 cases, bilateral adnexectomy in 3 cases, total hysterectomy with bilateral adnexectomy in 7 cases, radical hysterectomy in 1 case, and 2 cases underwent ovarian staging surgery. MBT patients received three cycles of postoperative chemotherapy with the carboplatin-paclitaxel (TC) regimen. FOLLOW-UP: One case with concomitant cervical cancer was lost to follow-up after surgery in an external hospital; one case with concomitant ovarian cancer received no further treatment after surgery and was lost to follow-up after 2 years; one case with concomitant endometrial cancer received no further treatment after surgery, and had no recurrence after 4 years of follow-up. Regular follow-up for MBT patients continued for 5 years without recurrence. The remaining 16 cases were followed up for a period ranging from 6 months to 7 years, with no reported recurrences.
conclusionClinical manifestations and auxiliary examinations of ovarian Brenner tumors lack obvious specificity. When necessary, a combination of tumor markers and imaging examinations can aid in diagnosis. Surgical strategies should be selected according to the patient's menopausal status.
