Clinicopathological and prognostic factor analyses of primary fallopian tube carcinoma and high-grade serous ovarian cancer: a single-institution retrospective study.
Article in World journal of surgical oncology, 2025. 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
objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate and compare the clinicopathologic features of primary fallopian tubal carcinoma (PFTC) and high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) and explore the prognostic factors of these two malignant tumors.
methodsFifty-seven patients diagnosed with PFTC from 2006 to 2015 and 60 patients diagnosed with HGSOC from 2014 to 2015 with complete prognostic information were identified at Women's Hospital of Zhejiang University. The clinicopathological and surgical data were collected, and the survival of the patients was followed for 5 years after surgery. The Cox proportional risk model was used to analyze the impact on survival.
resultsFor PFTC patients, the mean age was 57 years (range, 35-77 years). The most common clinical manifestations were abnormal vaginal bleeding and/or discharge (61%). A total of 72% of the cases were found at the early stage, and 90% of the tumors were high grade (51 cases). 51% of patients were diagnosed with PFTC before surgery, while the rest were misdiagnosed. Twenty-one patients relapsed. The overall survival (OS) rate was 82%. OS was significantly related to FIGO stage, the preoperative serum CA 125 level, lymphadenectomy, residual tumor size, appendectomy, and the number of cycles of chemotherapy. However, only FIGO stage was an independent prognostic variable for OS. For patients with HGSOC, the OS rate was 67%. OS was significantly related to FIGO stage, residual tumor size, and laterality. However, only residual tumor size was an independent prognostic variable for OS.
conclusionsOur study provides important clinicopathologic insights into PFTC and HGSOC. We identified FIGO stage as an independent prognostic factor for PFTC patients and residual tumor size as an independent prognostic factor for HGSOC patients. These findings emphasize the critical role of accurate staging and achieving a residual tumor size of less than 1 cm during surgery. Our research contributes to refining clinical decision-making, supporting the importance of optimal surgical outcomes, and guiding personalized treatment strategies to improve patient prognosis in both PFTC and HGSOC patients.
