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

Growing teratoma syndrome (GTS) is a rare clinical condition occurring in women with malignant ovarian germ cell tumors, with paradoxical findings of normal serum tumor markers and enlarging metastatic lesions during the adjuvant chemotherapy and/or follow-up period. The appropriate management is complete surgical resection and is currently the standard of care. We aim to evaluate the surgical and oncological outcomes and follow-up of patients with GTS. A retrospective analysis of clinicopathological outcomes of patients undergoing treatment for GTS between 2014 and 2021 was conducted. Patient demographics and clinical characteristics were calculated using descriptive analysis. Survival estimates for overall survival and disease-free survival are obtained using the Kaplan-Meier method. OS and time to recurrence in GTS between two or more groups are compared using the log rank test. A two-tailed
