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

This report describes the clinical, radiographic, and pathologic findings in a female rhesus macaque that presented with acute abdominal distension and tympany. The macaque was euthanized after evidence of severe colonic distension on radiography and observation of widespread peritoneal adhesions on exploratory laparotomy. Gross and histopathologic evaluation revealed extensive entrapment of gastrointestinal and reproductive tracts by serosal fibrovascular proliferative tissue containing foci of endometriosis. The diagnosis of endometrial stromal sarcoma was supported by expression of CD10, Wilm tumor 1, estrogen receptor, and progesterone receptor and failure to express immunohistochemical markers characteristic of a range of differential diagnoses. In humans, this relatively uncommon neoplasm can arise from sites of endometriosis and often presents clinically as intestinal obstruction, similar to the presentation in this macaque.
