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

Patient. This report describes a patient with a primary long bone adamantinoma. The lesion was initially wrongly diagnosed as fibrous dysplasia and the patient was treated by curettage. At second local recurrence, the tumour had progressed from an osteofibrous dysplasia-like to a full-blown classic adamantinoma, with metastatic potential to the lungs 19 years after the initial treatment. Lung metastasectomy by sternotomy was carried out twice in a period of over 3.5 years. The patient is currently alive without evidence of other metastatic disease.Discussion. From the files of the Netherlands Committee on Bone Tumors, another five patients with lung metastaseswere studied. All types of adamantinoma should be treated by complete en bloc resection. For patients with metastatic spread to the lungs, close radiological follow-up and excision of tumour nodules seems to be the only logic treatment modality.
