Diagnostic and Therapeutic Challenges With Synchronous Lung Adenocarcinoma and Cervical Carcinoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cervical cancer and lung cancer are both very rampant cancers and contribute significantly to the global healthcare burden. We discuss the rare occurrence of synchronous multiple primary cancer (SMPC) in an elderly female patient with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cervix and lung adenocarcinoma. The patient had SCC in cervical biopsy, and poorly differentiated carcinoma was reported in the biopsy of a single lung nodule, which was considered metastatic initially. She received a palliative intent chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin. Chemotherapy led to a complete response in the cervix, but the lung lesion persisted. Immunohistochemistry on the lung nodule was done, and it guided us to a SMPC diagnosis with lung adenocarcinoma plus SCC cervix. Subsequently, the patient received stereotactic body radiation therapy for lung adenocarcinoma and chemo-radiation for the SCC cervix, and she is on regular follow-up. The article highlights the practical difficulties in diagnosing SMPC in real-world situations with various practical and financial constraints. The manuscript discusses challenges in defining an optimal treatment regimen for SMPC due to its infrequency, the significance of clinical acuity, and the need for a high index of suspicion. Clinicians must not presume every non-regional nodule is metastatic, especially in cases with an oligometastatic disease burden.
