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: This study evaluated the effectiveness of preoperative inflammatory response markers in distinguishing clear cell carcinoma (CCC) and endometrioid carcinoma (EC) from ovarian endometrioma. Methods: Patients with stage I ovarian cancer with histology CCC/EC or endometrioma who underwent surgery at our institution between 2010 and 2021 were included. Preoperative inflammatory response markers evaluated were white blood cell count, C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), fibrinogen, D-dimer, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet count/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII). The tumor markers CA125 and CA19-9 were analyzed. The median values of these markers were compared between the CCC/EC and the endometrioma groups. The areas under the curve (AUC) in Receiver Operating Characteristic analysis were compared. Results: Fifty patients with stage I CCC/EC and 247 patients with endometrioma were included in the study. Inflammatory response markers were significantly higher in CCC/EC cases than in endometrioma cases ( Conclusion: Inflammatory response markers may be useful for the detection of stage I ovarian cancer. Notably, the NLR or SII, calculated using a complete blood count, appears particularly efficient. Combining tumor and inflammatory response markers may enhance diagnostic accuracy in distinguishing ovarian cancer from endometrioma.
