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

Carcinoma arising from deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and extending into the rectovaginal septum is extremely rare. Its treatment requires extensive surgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy. Herein, we present a case demonstrating that concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CCRT) can achieve effective cancer control. A 44-year-old nulliparous woman had been taking oral contraceptives due to pelvic endometriosis for years. The tumor markers have increased, and the tumor was localized within the pelvic cavity, particularly around the vesicouterine pouch and the rectouterine pouch. The patient underwent extensive surgery, but resection was incomplete. Considerable amounts of cancer tissue were retained in the left pelvic wall. CCRT was chosen as an adjuvant therapy due to localized high-grade adenocarcinoma, resulting in a complete response. Treatments for the malignant transformation of extra-gonadal endometriosis vary depending on the involved organs and the degree of extension. CCRT could be selected if the lesion is localized.
