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

This report presents a case of esophageal squamous cell cancer with osteoplastic bone metastasis. A 58-year-old male patient underwent multimodality treatment for esophageal cancer. Sclerotic changes resembling bone metastasis from prostate cancer were detected in the 4th thoracic and the 5th lumber vertebral body soon after the adjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Systemic examinations revealed no primary cancer as a cause of osteoplastic bone metastasis and no esophageal cancer recurrence. A needle biopsy revealed metastases of esophageal squamous cell cancer with osteoplastic changes. Multiple sclerotic changes were detected in the systemic bones at that time, and new carcinomatous bilateral pleural effusion developed. The drastic systemic progression of the cancer caused the rapid deterioration of the patient's general condition.
