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

objectiveThe purpose of this article is to explore the targeted treatment of malignant myofibroblastoma and evaluate the role of neoplasm metabolite markers in the evaluation of efficacy after targeted therapy.

methodThis report described a case of myofibroblastic sarcoma with rare mutation of

resultAfter the treatment of crizotinib, the tumor volume was decreased. However, bevacizumab combined with crizotinib had not improved the prognosis. The change of MTV and TLG was consistent with the efficacy. The increase of MTV and TLG is an early indicator of the poor prognosis of patients.

conclusionThe treatment of the crizotinib patient with the mutation of
