Bilateral ovarian artery embolization for a symptomatic large cervical fibroid.
Article in Radiology case reports, 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 are one of the most common smooth muscle tumors in women. Cervical leiomyomas, in contrast, are a relatively rare entity with limited available information, presenting a challenge for determining optimal treatment. Uterine artery embolization of cervical leiomyomas has been previously explored and met with some success. However, it has been associated with complications such as expulsion or incomplete embolization. This case, however, describes a patient who presented with a large cervical fibroid and was successfully treated with bilateral ovarian artery embolization, resulting in decreased fibroid burden and resolution of the patient's symptoms. Previous reports have demonstrated successful ovarian artery embolization for uterine leiomyomas, but this approach has yet to be shown for a cervical leiomyoma. Given the challenge presented by cervical leiomyomas, this case emphasizes a unique anatomical variant and the embolization method, providing an alternative, less-invasive option for reducing patient disease burden.
