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 report the first case of inflammatory variant of hepatic angiomyolipoma (AML) with expression of transcription factor E3 (TFE3) protein but negativity for HMB45 and melan A in a 62-year-old female. Imaging studies revealed a tumor in the left lobe of liver, sized 5.8 cm in maximum diameter. Microscopically, the lesion was composed of large polygonal or epithelioid cells with copious eosinophilic granular cytoplasm. There was a very prominent stromal lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells showed very strong and diffuse positivity for smooth muscle actin, and cathepsin K, while S-100 protein, keratin, desmin, HMB45 and Melan-A are negative. However, there was multifocal and very convincing nuclear positivity for TFE3, thus confirms the diagnosis.
