Squamous Cell Carcinoma Originating From Mature Cystic Teratoma of the Ovary Diagnosed 10 Years After Initial Tumor Detection: A Case Report.

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
Malignant transformation is a rare complication of ovarian mature cystic teratoma that occurs in 1-3% of cases. We herein report a case of squamous cell carcinoma originating from mature cystic teratoma of the ovary diagnosed 10 years after initial tumor detection. A 69-year-old woman presented to the Department of Internal Medicine with a seven-month history of abdominal fullness. Magnetic resonance imaging performed at another Department of Internal Medicine 10 years ago revealed a left ovarian teratoma measuring 8 cm; however, she refused referral to the Department of Gynecology. The current plane magnetic resonance imaging showed a large pelvic-abdominal cystic tumor measuring 17 cm, consisting of fat, fluid-fluid level, and a hair ball. Although the anterior wall of the cyst was slightly thick, the tumor had no solid projection into the cyst. She was referred to our Department of Gynecology. Contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography showed the lack of an enhanced solid component in the tumor. Laparotomy presented a large cystic tumor originating from the left ovary. A left salpingo-oophorectomy was performed without the intraperitoneal spillage of cyst fluid. Macroscopically, the left ovary was a unilocular cyst containing hair and sebaceous yellow fluid. A histological examination revealed that part of the thickened cyst wall was lined by squamous cell carcinoma
