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

Tenosynovial giant cell tumour, diffuse type, also known under a variety of other terms including diffuse pigmented villonodular synovitis, tends to be locally aggressive and not infrequently can show multiple recurrences. The differential diagnosis with the extremely rare and somewhat controversial malignant variant of tenosynovial giant cell tumour, diffuse type, is challenging due to overlapping radiologic features of these two entities. Malignant tenosynovial giant cell tumour is defined by the presence of overtly malignant sarcomatous areas. We describe a very unusual case of a 63-year-old man affected by tenosynovial giant cell tumour, diffuse type of the knee that, despite absence of morphologic evidence of sarcomatous transformation, developed inguinal lymph node metastases following multiple surgical procedures.
