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: Separate endometrioid adenocarcinoma involving only the gastrointestinal tract is extremely rare. Its diagnosis requires confirmation through pathological examination and immunohistochemical analysis. Case: We report the case of a nulliparous woman in whom two separate tumour lesions were identified in the rectosigmoid and sigmoid colon, without evidence of malignancy in the uterus or bilateral appendages before surgery. Following laparoscopic radical resection of the colonic lesions and lymph nodes, pathological and immunohistochemical analyses indicated that both lesions represented homogeneous adenocarcinoma of gynaecological origin. Postoperatively, the patient received three months of platinum- and paclitaxel-based chemotherapy. Six months after the initial surgery, the patient underwent a total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and postoperative histopathological examination again did not reveal any evidence of malignancy in the uterus or bilateral appendages. Conclusion: This report aims to describe the clinical features, diagnostic challenges, and treatment of this disease based on our case and relevant literature. The optimal treatment strategy for such cases remains to be established.
