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

Massive ovarian edema (MOE) is a rare benign condition that can occur at any age, and mainly affects women of childbearing age and prepubertal girls. Patients with MOE do not have specific signs and symptoms, and imaging may show cystic or solid masses. Therefore, it is often unclear preoperatively whether the mass is a benign or malignant ovarian tumor. This increases the possibility of salpingo-oophorectomy due to suspicion of malignancy which, in turn, affects the fertility of young women and alters their sex hormone levels. We report the case of a 14-year-old girl with three complete turns of torsion of both the right fallopian tube and right ovary, and enlargement of the right ovary without necrosis. We performed transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (TU-LESS) for diagnosis and treatment. During surgery, an ovarian cyst was removed and sent for frozen section, revealing MOE. Fertility-sparing surgery was therefore performed and the affected ovary was suspended to prevent further torsion.
