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

The Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) ultrasound and MRI lexicon guidelines have standardized preoperative assessment of adnexal masses and improved communication with clinicians. However, in premenopausal women who have undergone ovarian cystectomy, post-operative ovarian appearances may mimic indeterminate or suspicious lesions, posing interpreting challenges. This illustrative educational case series highlights characteristic post-operative imaging features following cystectomy for borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs), emphasizing some common pearls and pitfalls. The cases underscore that while O-RADS is validated for preoperative adnexal assessment, post-operative ovaries constitute a recognized gray zone where familiarity with these imaging nuances is crucial for accurate interpretation.
