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

Aggressive angiomyxoma is a benign stromal tumor with a higher prevalence in middle-aged women. The objective of this case report is to illustrate the aggressive clinical behavior of this benign tumor. We present the case of a 45-year-old female patient, with tumor recurrence after multiple surgical resections of a pelvis-subperitoneal angiomyxoma. Surgical excision of the tumor, with extensive pelvic dissection and organ resection, was performed. The 12-month follow-up showed no tumor recurrence. Based on this case, and the published literature we may conclude that surgical resection represents the main treatment of aggressive angiomyxoma, even though it is associated with significant morbidity and a poor local control of the tumor.
