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

The pathophysiology of bladder leiomyosarcoma, a rare disease with aggressive mesenchymal tumor, is not certain, but its main symptoms are hematuria, dysuria and abdominal pain. Cases described in the literature are few. This report describes a case of a leiomyosarcoma of the urinary bladder in a 49-year-old woman. After CT scanning revealed a heterogeneously enhanced 4-cm mass involving the bladder neck and anterior wall, further examinations detected no metastatic lesion. Cystoscopy and transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) were performed. The histopathological diagnosis was leiomyosarcoma. Postoperative period was uneventful. The patient experienced complete resolution of urologic symptoms. Repeat-TURBT was performed 70 days after first surgery. The patient has remained disease-free 18 months after surgery.
