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

Pseudomyxoma peritonei (pmp) is a rare clinical condition defined as extensive intraperitoneal spread of mucus associated with a variety of mucinous tumours of varying biologic behavior. Although appendix or ovaries have usually been implicated as the primary site, cases have been reported in association with neoplastic lesions of other sites. Pseudomyxoma peritonei originating from urachal remnants is a unique entity, reported only 18 times in the English literature thus far. Considering the rarity of the lesion, we report the case of a 50-year-old man surgically treated for pmp associated with a low-grade mucinous urachal neoplasm. Unique aspects of case are the low histologic aggressiveness of the causative lesion (reported only twice worldwide) and the early stage of the disease, with a relatively small amount of intraperitoneal free mucin. Review of the literature about pmp in general and a collation of previously reported cases of pmp originating from the urachus are presented and discussed.
