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

introductionWe report an uncommon case of paraspinal hibernoma with a T12-L1 foraminal extension and discuss the potential differential diagnoses of paraspinal adipocytic tumors. MATERIALS AND

methodsA 32-year-old woman consulted our department with a right subscapular and paraspinal mass. There was no associated neurological deficit. The MRI revealed a paraspinal adipocytic tumor with a T12-L1 right foraminal extension. Percutaneous biopsy suggested a diagnosis of hibernoma.

resultsHibernoma is a rare and benign adipocytic tumor arising from embryologic remnants of brown fat. Specific MRI findings are discussed to differentiate hibernoma from other soft-tissue tumors. A planned marginal resection was undertaken with the final histopathology confirming the diagnosis of hibernoma.

conclusionBased on the Grand Round case and relevant literature, we discuss a rare case of paraspinal hibernoma with a foraminal component and no recurrence at 3-year follow-up.
