Tumor recurrence risk following different COS regimens in infertile women with borderline ovarian tumors: impact on IVF outcomes.

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
backgroundControlled ovarian stimulation (COS) is a feasible method for treating borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) after fertility-sparing surgery (FSS). The recurrence rate does not appear to be higher in women treated with COS, and it is important to assess its effects on the pregnancy rate. There have been no reports comparing different COS regimens in patients with BOTs.
methodsThis retrospective observational study included 73 BOT patients who underwent COS. Patients were divided into two groups according to the COS regimen: the mild stimulation group (36 patients) and the agonist/antagonist cycle group (37 patients). In this study, the effects of the COS regimens on pregnancy outcomes and the risk of tumor recurrence were compared.
resultsThe follow-up time among the 73 patients was 61 (7-156) months. The proportion of patients with a serous histopathology and a micropapillary architecture was 33.3% in the mild stimulation group, which was significantly greater than that in the agonist/antagonist cycle group (P = 0.045). The initial dose of gonadotropin (Gn), the total dose of Gn, the duration of Gn treatment, and estradiol (E
