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

We present the case of a 13-year-old girl with a huge intracranial mesenchymal chondrosarcoma. She had suffered from severe headache, diplopia, intermittent nausea and vomiting for 1 month. Neurologic examination revealed bilateral blurred optic disc margins and abducens paresis. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a giant, heterogeneous, intensely enhancing mass of 7 x 8 x 6 cm, occupying the bilateral frontal and left high parietal regions and based on the anterior cerebral falx. A presumptive diagnosis of aggressive meningioma was made. The patient underwent bicoronal craniotomy and gross total resection of the tumor. Pathologic examination revealed an extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma. She was under regular follow-up and remained free of recurrence after surgery. In addition to the current case, we review previously reported cases of extraskeletal intracranial mesenchymal chondrosarcoma and discuss treatment strategies and outcomes.
