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

Background: Müllerian adenosarcoma is an uncommon mixed epithelial-mesenchymal neoplasm that predominantly develops in the uterine corpus and rarely occurs in extrauterine sites, including the ovary. Ovarian adenosarcoma is associated with a more aggressive course and is often linked to endometriosis. Case presentation: We present the case of a nulliparous woman in her early 30s who presented with abdominal bloating, pelvic pain, and significant ascites. Imaging studies revealed bilateral adnexal solid-cystic masses. Histopathologic and immunohistochemical (IHC) evaluation of the resected specimens demonstrated Müllerian adenosarcoma involving both adnexa and peritoneal surfaces, likely arising from endometriosis. Conclusion: This case highlights the diagnostic difficulty of extrauterine Müllerian adenosarcoma, particularly when presenting as bilateral adnexal Müllerian adenosarcoma with peritoneal involvement arising in the setting of endometriosis. Detailed histopathologic evaluation is essential, especially when glandular elements show mucinous differentiation, which broadens the differential diagnosis.
