Cervical yolk sac tumor: a case report and literature review.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2026. 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
Background: Yolk sac tumor (YST) is the third most common highly malignant germ cell tumor, predominantly arising from the ovary and testis. The standard treatment for ovarian YST is surgery combined with BEP (bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin) chemotherapy in which bleomycin has a cumulative lifetime dose and pulmonary toxicity. Advancements in treatment have yielded favorable prognoses for YST patients. Here, we present the clinical, imaging, pathological features, and individualized treatment of a case of primary cervical YST which is extremely rare in previous reports. Case report: A 46-year-old female patient with primary cervical YST received neoadjuvant chemotherapy(1 cycle of paclitaxel+carboplatin, 2 cycles of BEP), radical surgery and 4 cycle of adjuvant BEP chemotherapy. The patient achieved complete remission after initial treatment but developed disease recurrence shortly thereafter, with confirmed BEP resistance. Salvage treatment with TC (albumin-bound paclitaxel and carboplatin) combined with bevacizumab was then administered, leading to a durable complete response; the patient subsequently received bevacizumab as maintenance therapy. Conclusions: YST of the cervix is extremely rare. This article reviews the clinical characteristics, treatment, and survival of advanced cervical YST. In addition, the complete response of this patient provides a new option for patients with recurrent and metastatic cervical YST, and TC regimen combined with VEGF inhibitors is expected to serve as a salvage treatment.
