Bilateral Optic Disc Edema as the Presenting Sign of Brain Metastasis in Ovarian Carcinoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Brain metastases are one of the common causes of brain tumours in adults and lead to increased morbidity and mortality in cancer patients. Primary cancers such as lung, breast, and melanoma are most likely to metastasize to the brain; however, the incidence of brain metastases in ovarian cancer is low. Papilledema due to brain metastasis occurs when the tumor mass within the brain leads to increased intracranial pressure (ICP). We present an unusual case of bilateral papilledema as the earliest clinical manifestation of brain metastasis in a 48-year-old woman who had undergone treatment for ovarian carcinoma one year ago. We are trying to highlight the rare relapse of ovarian carcinoma (OC) in the form of brain metastasis within one year of therapy and presenting with ophthalmic complaints. Therefore, we emphasize detailed history taking, clinical examination, and neuroimaging of any patient so that early diagnosis and treatment can be done.
