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

Angiosarcoma is the most malignant sarcoma originating in endothelial vascular cells. It has a wide differential diagnosis due to its similarities with other entities, such as parasitic diseases. More often, angiosarcoma is diagnosed by exclusion. Neurocysticercosis and hydatid disease, or echinococcosis, are parasitic infections that may involve the central nervous system and their incidence is higher in South American countries. Diagnosis is established based on the epidemiological profile, the parasitological examination, the radiological appearance of the lesions, and the histopathology analysis of specimens. We present the case of a female adolescent with parasitosis risk factors whose neuroimages suggested cerebral hydatid cysts and who was finally diagnosed with cardiac metastatic angiosarcoma.
