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 number of rheumatic disorders may appear as paraneoplastic syndromes, the most common being dermatomyositis or polymyositis. Systemic sclerosis is associated with a slightly increased risk of cancer, although its direct association with malignancies is controversial. We describe a case of a 57-year-old male with rectal adenocarcinoma and systemic sclerosis. Close temporal relationship between the initial presentation and parallel course of both conditions, as well as atypically rapid progression of systemic sclerosis symptoms, were observed in the reported case. The strict relation between these two conditions suggested that systemic sclerosis was a paraneoplastic syndrome rather than a concomitant morbidity in the presented patient. Current literature on systemic sclerosis coexisting with colorectal tumours is very limited, especially in the paraneoplastic setting.
