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

Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) is a rare malignancy with a poor outcome. In this article, we describe a case of ERMS in the paranasal sinuses from a 60-year-old male patient. ERMS derived from the paranasal sinuses is extremely rare. The diagnosis of ERMS must be based on histological findings and immunohistochemical findings. In this case, microscopic observation showed tumor cells were arranged in flocked sheets, cord-like and acinar-like by hyperplastic fibrous tissue. And ERMS tissues were immunopositive for myogenin, desmin, MSA, CD56, vimentin, CD99, Syn and Ki-67 (40%+), and immunonegative for CK, EMA, LCA, GFAP, NSE, S-100, HMB-45 and Melan-A. Here, the patient was treated with multimodal therapy including endoscopic surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, but the patient's postoperative recovery is not too smooth.
