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 43-year-old woman presented with worsening shortness of breath and lower-extremity edema. Echocardiography and computed tomography showed obstruction of blood flow due to a mass filling the right atrium. Emergency surgery was performed for circulatory failure. Primary cardiac rhabdomyosarcoma was diagnosed based on a histological examination. The patient died about two months after the diagnosis despite surgical excision and radiation therapy. The poor prognosis may have resulted from the grossly incomplete removal of the tumor and chemotherapy intolerance. We herein report a case of primary cardiac rhabdomyosarcoma filling the right atrium and offer possible reasons for the poor prognosis.
