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

Teratomas are the most common histological subtype of germ cell tumors in pediatric patients. They are classified into two types: mature(benign) and immature(malignant). Early diagnosis is essential for optimal management. Adnexal torsion is the most frequent complication of mature ovarian teratoma, with a higher incidence in young girls. We report a case of a four-year-old girl who arrived at the emergency department with acute left flank abdominal pain and non-bloody vomiting, 24 hours prior to admission. Abdominal ultrasound revealed a large cystic abdominal mass with a Doppler-detected vascularized spiral configuration. Surgical management was performed via a Pfannenstiel laparotomy, which revealed a mature ovarian teratoma.
