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

Background: Synchronous endometrial and ovarian carcinomas represent up to 10% of all endometrial and ovarian tumors. These are diagnostically challenging cases to determine if they represent dual primary tumors or related metastatic tumors. Case: A 48-year-old was diagnosed with synchronous primary ovarian and endometrial malignancies on pathology based on traditional morphological parameters. However, following next generation sequencing (NGS) of tumors from both the uterus and ovary, the malignancies were unequivocally recognized as primary uterine tumor metastatic to the ovary using mismatch repair protein expression profile and tumor clonality. Conclusion: NGS using FDA-approved commercially available platforms is becoming increasingly utilized to understand the genetic landscape of tumors and select the appropriate targeted therapies for improved outcomes. Simultaneous sequencing of synchronous endometrial and ovarian carcinomas may represent the new gold standard to unequivocally demonstrate tumor clonal relationships, properly classify disease as well as guide the most appropriate adjuvant treatment in these challenging cases.
