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
Introduction: Brenner tumors (BTs) are rare ovarian neoplasms, with malignant variants constituting 1-5% of cases. Typically occurring in women aged 50-70 years, malignant BTs often manifest with nonspecific symptoms such as abdominal pain and weight loss. Their etiology remains unclear, and a definitive diagnosis requires histopathological confirmation. Case Presentation: A 54-year-old Arab woman, a long-term smoker, presented with a 3-month history of abdominal pain, weight loss, and distension. Imaging revealed bilateral adnexal masses (left: 14 cm; right: 13 cm) with cystic degeneration, while tumor markers (CA-125, CEA) remained normal. Exploratory laparotomy identified bilateral ovarian tumors and omental metastasis. Histopathology confirmed a high-grade malignant BT, supported by immunohistochemistry. The patient underwent total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, omentectomy, and six cycles of carboplatin-paclitaxel chemotherapy. Surveillance imaging at 8 months showed no recurrence. Conclusion: This case illustrates the diagnostic complexity of malignant BTs due to nonspecific symptoms, normal tumor markers, and imaging limitations. Bilateral involvement, though uncommon, underscores tumor aggressiveness. Standard surgical cytoreduction and platinum-based chemotherapy achieved a favorable interim outcome, aligning with epithelial ovarian cancer protocols.
