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

A primary clear cell adenocarcinoma of the colon is a rare oncologic entity. The current study presents a case of such a tumor in the transverse colon of a 26-year-old male, and describes the computed tomography features of the neoplasm. The tumor appeared as an extensive extracolic mass, which displaced the loop of the small bowel and pancreas, and invaded the spleen. A laparotomy was performed and a huge mass measuring 12 cm maximally was revealed, arising from the transverse colon close to the left colonic flexure, with invasion of the spleen. The tumor and the spleen were resected concurrently. Histopathological examination of the excised mass revealed features of clear cell adenocarcinoma. A primary clear cell adenocarcinoma of the colon is a rare tumor, with only 13 cases reported in the English literature at present. The present case is reported here due to its rarity.
