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 20-year-old Japanese woman with a history of pulmonary atresia was referred to our hospital after the detection of an abnormal mass in the right lung and mediastinal lymphadenopathy. A cytological specimen obtained by transbronchial brushing indicated that the pathological diagnosis was non-small cell lung cancer. During the follow-up period, the tumor spontaneously regressed. At four months after the diagnosis, she experienced sudden bleeding from the small intestine. The histological characteristics of the small intestine tumor were compatible with the cytological characteristics of the lung tumor. Detailed immunohistochemical analyses led to a final diagnosis of epithelial angiosarcoma of the small intestine, which might have formed metastatic lesions in the lung.
