Management of adnexal torsion: A 5-year experience from a tertiary center.

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
objectiveWe aimed to examine the clinical characteristics, surgical findings, histopathological results, laboratory parameters of histopathologically confirmed ovarian torsion cases.
methodsThis was a retrospective study that analyzed 96 surgically proven cases of ovarian torsion treated at a tertiary care referral hospital between 2018 and 2024. The study reviewed demographic characteristics, clinical features, surgical details, laboratory findings, and histopathological results of patients through the hospital's electronic medical records. In addition, a comparative analysis was conducted to evaluate differences between patients undergoing laparoscopic and laparotomy surgical approaches.
resultsNinety-six surgically confirmed ovarian torsions with a median age 27 years were included. The main presenting symptoms were pelvic pain (93.8%) and abdominal pain (40.6%). Laparoscopy was performed in 61 (63.5%) patients, while laparotomy was performed in 35 (36.5%) patients. Surgical approaches included salpingo-oophorectomy with cystectomy (12.1%), salpingo-oophorectomy alone (40.6%), adnexectomy (41.7%), and hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (5.2%). Ovarian size ranged from 2-30 cm (mean 7.0 cm) with right-sided involvement in 60.4%. Hemorrhagic infarction was the most common histopathologic finding, followed by simple cysts, with only one case of borderline serous cystadenoma.
conclusionAdnexal torsion is a rare emergency requiring a high index of clinical suspicion due to nonspecific symptoms. Surgical intervention is the definitive approach, with laparoscopy preferred for faster recovery and superior outcomes.
