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: Ovarian mucinous tumors are histologically classified into benign, borderline, and malignant categories, with borderline tumors generally demonstrating an intermediate prognosis. However, ovarian borderline mucinous tumors with malignant mural nodules are associated with poor prognosis, where sarcomatous and anaplastic carcinoma mural nodules are common, whereas carcinosarcomatous mural nodules are rare. Case presentation: This report describes a case of a 27-year-old female patient presenting with a two-year history of abdominal distension. Imaging studies revealed a large cystic-solid mass with abnormal signal characteristics. The patient underwent exploratory laparotomy combined with fertility-sparing staging surgery for suspected ovarian malignancy. Postoperative pathological diagnosis confirmed ovarian borderline mucinous tumor with carcinosarcomatous mural nodule. The patient subsequently received adjuvant chemotherapy, and at 5.5 months of follow-up, there has been no evidence of recurrence. Conclusion: This case provides novel insights into the diagnosis of ovarian borderline mucinous tumor with a carcinosarcomatous mural nodule, contributing to an enhanced understanding and recognition of carcinosarcomatous mural nodules.
