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

We describe a rare primary mixed granular cell astrocytoma and fibrosarcoma neoplasm, occurring in a 52-year-old female, with morphologic, immunohistochemical and molecular genetic features, whose tumor was entirely composed of granular cells and fibrosarcoma competent. This represents, to the best of our knowledge, the first report of the mixed granular cell astrocytoma and fibrosarcoma neoplasm. Moreover, two parts forming a complex arrangement that excluded it being assessed as a coincidental collision tumor. We discuss the relationship of two parts of this rare tumor by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Sarcomatous components in this tumor had the same aberrations of chromosomes to the gliomatous components of neoplasms, consisting of 1p 19q loss and no evidence of PTEN allele loss and amplification of EGFR. It was suggested that the sarcomatous component may be derived from glioma cells i this case.
