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

Clear cell sarcoma (CCS), initially named malignant melanoma of soft parts, is a rare malignant neoplasm typically involving deep soft tissue of the extremities, in close proximity to tendons and aponeuroses. Here we describe a case of clear cell sarcoma of the right parapharyngeal region in a young female aged 20 years. MRI detected a mass about 4.4 cm×3.4 cm×3.0 cm, located in the right parapharyngeal area and between the external pterygoid and the medial pterygoid. Microscopically, most of the tumor cells were epithelioid with palely eocinophilic cytoplasm arranged in sheets. Pleophorism of tumor cells were not marked. Immunohistochemical analysis shows that the tumor cells were positive for vimentin, S-100, HMB45 and MelanA, and negative for AE1/AE3, actin-sm, desmin, CD117, TFE-3, and P63. Ki67 index was about 5%.
