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: Brenner tumors are rare ovarian neoplasms that often coexist with other epithelial tumors, most commonly mucinous cystic neoplasms. The association of Brenner tumors with endometriosis is unusual and not well-documented in the literature. Case presentation: We describe the case of a 64-year-old postmenopausal woman presenting with abnormal uterine bleeding and a left adnexal mass. Histopathologic examination revealed the synchronous presence of a benign Brenner tumor, mucinous cystadenoma, and a microscopic focus of endometriosis, all within the same ovary. Discussion: The simultaneous occurrence of these three lesions is highly unusual. A potential shared histogenetic origin has been proposed for Brenner and mucinous tumors, while the coexistence of endometriosis raises further questions regarding hormonal or microenvironmental influences. Thorough histopathologic and immunohistochemical evaluation is essential in such complex presentations. Conclusion: This case underscores the importance of comprehensive pathologic assessment in ovarian masses, especially when multiple histologic components are present. Recognition of rare associations can prevent misdiagnosis and guide appropriate clinical management.
