Status of and Challenges in Therapy of Mucinous Ovarian Cancer Associated with Pseudomyxoma Peritonei Syndrome: Review of Current Options and Future Treatment Trends.
Review in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivePseudomyxoma peritonei (PP) is a rare condition, and differentiating between primary and secondary ovarian causes is crucial for determining the appropriate oncological therapy. Given the resistance of ovarian mucinous carcinoma to standard platinum-based chemotherapy, the objective of this review is to present the current therapeutic approaches and summarize the emerging trends in the treatment of this disease.
methodsThe authors conducted an exhaustive evaluation of studies published over a 14-year period (June 2010-May 2024) concerning pseudomyxoma peritonei, mucinous ovarian carcinoma, ovarian causes of PP, and ovarian cancer using the following databases: PubMed, Scopus, and Science Direct. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were followed. The results were organized into seven subchapters and analyzed.
resultsThe analyzed studies present surgery followed by HIPEC as the current therapy with the best long-term survival results. However, the oncological treatment is unsatisfactory, and the choice of therapy depending on the primary origin of the tumor becomes particularly important. For the differential diagnosis between pseudomyxoma due to a gastrointestinal cause and that of ovarian origin, genetic analyses are recommended; these include the characteristics of the mucin present in the lesion, as the therapeutic response can have contradictory results depending on the primary origin of the tumor.
conclusionsSurgery followed by HIPEC remains the standard for resectable cases. However, oncological treatment has controversial results in the case of mucinous ovarian carcinoma compared to other types of ovarian cancer and to metastatic ovarian tumors associated with pseudomyxoma of the peritoneum. Based on the articles included in this review, it was found that the current trend is the study of mucin as a resistance factor against chemotherapy based on platinum products and the targeting of oncological therapy according to the tumor's genetic characteristics.
