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

This review focuses on the MRI features of neurogenic tumors and rhabdomyosarcoma in children. Neurogenic tumors include those arising from a nerve sheath and neuroblastic tumors that arise from the sympathetic nervous system. Nerve sheath tumors can be benign or malignant and occur sporadically or in association with neurofibromatosis type 1. Neuroblastic tumors comprise a spectrum of tumors ranging from highly malignant neuroblastoma to the benign ganglioneuroma. These neurogenic tumors arise in typical locations within the chest, abdomen and pelvis and have distinctive and characteristic imaging features that should suggest their diagnosis. Rhabdomyosarcoma encompasses a variety of histological subtypes that exhibit varying degrees of aggressiveness and biological behavior. While some abdominal and pelvic locations are well known to give rise to rhabdomyosarcoma, this tumor can arise in any tissue in the body except bone. The paper reviews the MRI and clinical features of neurogenic tumors and rhabdomyosarcoma and the imaging findings that can aid in clinical management.
