Endometriosis: assessment on O-RADS and risk of malignant transformation.
Review in Abdominal radiology (New York), 2025. 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
Endometriosis is a common disease, affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age. Several intersecting guidelines and consensus statements provide information on imaging diagnosis and surveillance strategies for endometriomas. SRU consensus panel recommendations provide information on initial detection of endometriosis on routine pelvic imaging. Revised American Society of Reproductive Medicine (rASRM) classification, the #ENZIAN classification, and the deep pelvic endometriosis index (dPEI) aim to assess the overall extent of disease and assist in presurgical planning. The Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) aims to risk stratify lesions evaluated with US or MR based on their imaging morphology, from typical benign lesions to atypical presentations and malignant transformation. Emerging data shows increased risk of ovarian cancer in patients with endometriosis, especially following menopause and in those patients with long standing endometriosis. (Chen et al. in Front Oncol. 14:1329133, 2024;Streuli et al. in Climacteric. 20:138-143, 2017;Secosan et al. in Diagnostics (Basel). 10:134, 2020;Inceboz in Womens Health (Lond Engl). 11:711-715, 2015;Cassani et al. in Maturitas. 190, 2024;Gemmell et al. in Hum Reprod Update. 23:481-500, 2017;Giannella et al. in Cancers (Basel). 13:4026, 2021;) Current O-RADS guidelines mandate follow-up of endometriomas up to 2 years with further follow-up based on clinical factors. No consensus guidelines exist for imaging surveillance of patients with deep endometriosis from a malignancy standpoint. This review explores the imaging appearance of endometriomas, imaging features of malignant transformation, surveillance strategies and gaps in current literature, and attempts to better understand the risk of malignancy and to encourage further research for long-term imaging surveillance of endometriosis patients.
