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

Primary adenocarcinoma of the vulva is a rare disease, and usually arises in a Bartholin gland or occurs in association with Paget's disease. Furthermore, adenocarcinoma of intestinal type of the vulva is an extremely rare neoplasm, and few cases have been reported. The appropriate treatment for optimal prognosis is unclear. We report a case of adenocarcinoma of intestinal type of the vulva occurring in a 63-year-old female. The tumor was found near the urethra, and biopsy specimen showed a proliferation of signet ring cells embedded in an abundant myxoid stroma and irregular tubular structures of atypical columnar epithelium. An extensive workup showed no metastases. Local excision with a 2-cm lesion in the vulva side, bilateral superficial inguinal lymph node dissection and Cloquet lymph node biopsy were performed. Cancer cells contained mucinous materials in the cytoplasm, which exhibited diffuse positive staining for cytokeratin 20 and CDX2. The final pathologic diagnosis was adenocarcinoma of intestinal type of the vulva (pT1bN0M0). The patient received adjuvant external irradiation because of positive urethral surgical margin. She is well 1 year after therapy. Immunohistochemical staining for cytokeratin 20 and polyclonal CDX2 is helpful with investigation of adenocarcinoma of intestinal type, but long-term prognosis remains unclear.
