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

rationaleSolitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is an unusual neoplasm, especially when it originates from the seminal vesicle. Herein, we describe a case of SFT that arises from the seminal vesicle. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 66-year-old man presented to our hospital complaining of a huge irregular tumor in his pelvis during a health checkup. He was worried that the tumor could be a malignant tumor and hence wanted to undergo further examination and therapy. DIAGNOSIS: An inhomogeneous, mixed soft tissue tumor in the pelvis was found during computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging. The tumor showed heterogeneous and delayed enhancement during contrast-enhanced CT. The tumor was diagnosed as a cystadenoma originated from the seminal vesicle due to its imaging features. But the pathological diagnosis was SFT that originated from the seminal vesicle.

interventionsLaparoscopic seminal vesicle tumor resection was performed. OUTCOMES: There was no evidence of recurrence at the 6-month follow-up. LESSONS: SFT in the seminal vesicle is extremely rare. It is very difficult to distinguish SFT in the seminal vesicle from the primary tumors as both have similar imaging features. We describe the tumor with SFT being considered as a differential diagnosis when the tumor is found in the seminal vesicle.
