A Case Report of a Mature Omental Teratoma: Insights Into Extragonadal Teratoma Formation and Management.

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
Teratomas are germ cell tumors, with ovarian teratomas being the most common type. However, extragonadal teratomas are extremely rare. Omental teratomas are the most common type of extragonadal teratomas. Most patients with omental teratomas are asymptomatic, making preoperative diagnosis challenging. Imaging studies, such as CT scans, can provide valuable information, but a definitive diagnosis requires histopathological examination. In this case, a 65-year-old Iranian woman presented with mild abdominal pain and a normal physical examination. A preoperative abdominopelvic CT scan revealed a calcified pelvic mass with fat components, suggesting a connection to the right fallopian tube. However, during surgery, the mass was found to be in the greater omentum, with no adnexal involvement. Histopathological examination confirmed a mature teratoma. Treatment for mature teratomas typically involves surgical excision, which was successfully performed in this case, resulting in a smooth postoperative recovery.
