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

Myxoid neoplasms are histopathologically divided into true myxomas and other tumors of myxomatous character. In the region of the nasal septum, this tumor entity is extremely rare. In the following two case reports, the unusual findings of a myxoma and a myxoid chondrosarcoma of the nasal septum are presented and discussed. At first visit, both patients reported a slowly progressing, bilateral nasal obstruction. In nasal endoscopy, both showed a smoothly surfaced, spheroid, soft tissue mass in the dorsal nasal septum. On CT-scans, a displacing growth was described for the first patient; in the second patient, a bony arrosion of the floor of the sphenoid sinus was suspected. Both lesions were surgically completely removed. The histopathological diagnosis was myxoma in the first and myxoid chondrosarcoma in the second patient. An early, locally recurrent tumor in the second patient could also be surgically removed. Both patients have been in full remission for more than a year. In spite of the similar symptoms and clinical findings, histopathologically different myxoid neoplasms of the nasal septum show marked variations in growth and recurrence.
