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
Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) encompasses a spectrum of premalignant and malignant conditions arising from trophoblastic tissue. This case highlights an unusual and severe progression of a partial hydatidiform mole complicated by preeclampsia, hyperthyroidism, torsion of a theca-lutein cyst, and ultimately metastatic choriocarcinoma. The patient's course illustrates the importance of early recognition, close monitoring, and multidisciplinary management. This rare and instructive presentation underscores the malignant potential of partial moles. Case: A 36-year-old patient who presented with abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding, associated with hypertension and a beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) of 1561722.6 mIU/mL. Ultrasound revealed a pattern suggestive of a partial mole. Manual vacuum aspiration (MVA) was performed, finding 750 mL of vesicular tissue. Histopathological examination confirmed a partial mole. Days later, the patient developed torsion of a theca lutein cyst, which required exploratory laparotomy. During follow-up, β-hCG levels progressively increased, indicating persistent trophoblastic disease. The patient was referred to an oncology center, where she was diagnosed with choriocarcinoma with pulmonary metastases. She is currently undergoing her first cycle of chemotherapy. The chosen regimen was etoposide and cisplatin, administered over four cycles. This decision was guided by a FIGO risk score assessment, which placed the patient in the low to intermediate-risk category. The initial response was favorable, with no observed complications during the first two cycles.
