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

A solitary fibrous tumor is a neoplasm generally arising from the mesothelial surfaces of the pleura and mesothelium. In this paper, we describe three cases of rare solitary fibrous tumors arising from the orbit and discuss the management of the tumors, including diagnosis and treatment. All three cases were treated by surgical resection and showed satisfactory aesthetic and functional results. For a definitive diagnosis, immunohistochemical staining for proteins such as vimentin, CD34 and bcl-2 and hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining for identifying the morphological characteristics of spindle cell tumors with a partially storiform pattern and staghorn vessels are indispensable. The principle of treatment for orbital solitary fibrous tumor is complete resection because the prognosis depends on controlling tumor progression, which can be difficult with chemotherapy and radiotherapy alone.
