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

Polypoid endometriosis is a rare variant characterized by mass-forming endometriosis, often mimicking malignancy. This report describes the case of a postmenopausal woman who presented with an incidental complex adnexal mass and elevated tumor markers. She underwent bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and mass removal. Frozen section suggested endometriosis with possible serous borderline tumor, prompting staging. Final pathology revealed polypoid endometriosis with areas of endometrioid intraepithelial neoplasia. Polypoid endometriosis may present as a postmenopausal pelvic mass with elevated tumor markers and can contain endometrioid intraepithelial neoplasia.
