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

rationaleSeromucinous hamartoma is a rare benign glandular proliferation of the sinonasal tract and nasopharynx, and the majority of lesions occur on the posterior nasal septum. PATIENT CONCERNS: The patient had complaints of rhinorrhea, sneezing, and itching for a number of years, and recurrent right nasal bleeding for which the patient underwent endoscopic removal of a right inferior turbinate tumor. The biopsy result was low-grade, non-intestinal type adenocarcinoma, and the patient was referred to our hospital. DIAGNOSIS AND

interventionsAn endoscopic medial maxillectomy of the right nasal cavity was performed. The histopathological analysis of the nasal mass revealed a seromucinous (glandular) hamartoma. OUTCOMES: The postoperative course was unremarkable. The patient has been followed up regularly for 1 year with no additional treatment and no recurrence. LESSONS: Seromucinous hamartoma of the nasal cavity is extremely rare, especially in anterior portion of nasal cavity. It is important to distinguish seromucinous hamartoma from adenocarcinoma and to maintain regular long-term follow-up.
