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/Aim: Ovarian tumors are a common type of neoplasm in women, with mature cystic teratomas being the most frequent variant. These tumors occur bilaterally in approximately 10% of cases. However, bilateral and multiple occurrences are rarely reported. Case Report: A 22-year-old nulliparous woman presented with amenorrhea and sudden, generalized, dull lower abdominal pain. Diagnostic imaging, including ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) scans, revealed large solid-cystic lesions in both ovaries, with internal hyperechoic foci consistent with fat and calcification, along with thin internal septations. A laparoscopic cystectomy was successfully performed, preserving ovarian function. Histopathological examination confirmed the presence of stratified keratinized squamous epithelium, sebaceous glands, hair follicles, mature adipose tissue, blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels within the resected cysts, with no evidence of malignancy. Conclusion: This unique case provides valuable insights into the understanding and management of bilateral dermoid cysts, highlighting the importance of preserving ovarian function in young women.
