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

Struma ovarii (SO) is a rare ovarian teratoma mostly made of thyroid tissue, with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) being even rarer. This report presents a 50-year-old woman with PTC in SO and a normal thyroid. A left ovarian cyst was detected by ultrasound and confirmed by MRI. Surgery included total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, revealing focal PTC and no thyroid abnormalities. A review of 10 cases showed a median diagnosis age of 46.5 years, with symptoms like abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. Routine checkups in perimenopausal women are key for early detection, and thyroid evaluation is important in PTC cases within SO.
