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

Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) is a subtype of rhabdomyosarcoma and usually occurs in childhood and adolescence. ARMS is characterized by its aggressive behavior and poor prognosis. To improve the unfavorable prognosis, new therapeutic developments and the establishment of methods for precise prognostic prediction are required. We describe a case of ARMS, solid variant, which occurred in a 10-year-old boy. After chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the tumor morphologically and immunohistochemically showed marked cytodifferentiation, whereas the exact same PAX3-FKHR chimeric fusion gene transcript was detected in samples before and after treatment. The result of this study seems to indicate that therapeutic cytodifferentiation does not always correlate with genetic change and favorable prognosis in ARMS.
