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

introductionHemangiopericytoma (HPC) has been first described in 1942 by Stout as a tumor originating from the capillary surrounding pericytes. It is known to occur in any anatomical site, especially the extremities and retroperitoneum. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We describe a case of a 24year old patient presenting with lower abdominal pain due to a tumor of the greater omentum, the patient was treated by conventional laparotomy with tumor resection and the histological evaluation confirmed the diagnosis Hemangiopericytoma/Solitary fibrous tumor (HPC/SFT). The patient has regularly followed-up with periodic imaging for the last 4 years, with no recurrences. DISCUSSION AND

conclusionAccording to our knowledge, HPC rarely develops in the greater omentum, only 20 cases were described in the literature. Primary surgical resection is the treatment of choice. There is no benefit of radiation or systemic chemotherapy. Angiogenic inhibitors represent promising systemic therapeutic concepts.
