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

Serous borderline tumors (SBTs) typically arise from the ovary, and their development within a paratubal cyst is an uncommon occurrence. We report a 22-year-old nulliparous woman with chronic dysmenorrhea and an enlarging right adnexal cyst who underwent laparoscopic bilateral salpingectomy for symptom relief and sterilization. Intraoperatively, a 5 cm right paratubal cyst was identified, with normal uterus and ovaries. Histopathologic examination revealed an SBT confined to the paratubal cyst (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage IA (FIGO IA)). This case highlights that even small, radiologically benign-appearing paratubal cysts can harbor borderline neoplasia. Awareness of this rare entity and careful histopathologic evaluation of all adnexal cysts are essential for accurate diagnosis and optimal management in young women.
