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

backgroundHepatoid adenocarcinoma (HAC) occurs in extrahepatic organs such as the gastrointestinal tract, testes, ovaries, lungs, mediastinum and pancreas, and frequently produces α-fetoprotein (AFP). HAC of the lung (HAL) is rare, characterized by difficult treatment and poor prognosis. There are no reports of HAL in Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, China. CASE SUMMARY: A 60-year-old male patient was clinically diagnosed with HAL pT3N0M0, stage IIB. Chest computed tomography revealed a 7.5 cm × 7.2 cm soft tissue mass located in the right lung upper lobe and the adjacent superior mediastinum. Right upper lobectomy was performed. The diagnosis of HAL was confirmed by pathological examination, and the patient received paclitaxel and carboplatin as adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery.

conclusionClinical manifestations, pathological features, imaging findings, auxiliary examination, and treatment planning of HAL are presented to help clinicians improve their diagnosis and treatment.
