Unusual polypoid endometriosis with initial impression of abdominal ectopic pregnancy, discovered accidentally: case report and literature review.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 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
Introduction and importance: Polypoid endometriosis (PE) is a rare entity, but it is important to recognize because it represents a huge diagnostic challenge due to rarity. On the other hand, it presents as a mass, so it can mimic multiple medical conditions like tumors or abdominal ectopic pregnancy, just like our case. Case presentation: In our case, we present a 16-year-old pregnant woman who was admitted to a rural hospital with amenorrhea and an acute abdomen. Finally diagnosed with PE by accidentally! Clinical discussion: The patient underwent an emergency surgery under suspicion of an ectopic pregnancy. During the operation, a mass arising from Douglas pouch was found, which was suspected to be an abdominal ectopic pregnancy. The patient was referred to our hospital for further management due to lack of surgical resources. We removed the mass and sent it for histology, which revealed benign PE. Conclusion: Our goal through this case is to shed light on these conditions so that they are not misdiagnosed.
