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

objectiveTo retrospectively review the clinicopathological features and computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of abdominal perivascular epithelioid cell tumor without visible fat (PEComa MATERIALS AND

methodsSixteen patients with surgically and pathologically confirmed perivascular epithelioid cell tumor without visible fat were enrolled. Their clinicopathological data and imaging findings were retrospectively reviewed. The CT and MRI features, including location, size, shape, margin, density, calcification, cystic necrosis and enhancement pattern, were analyzed.

resultsThere were 4 males and 12 females (median age, 46 years; range, 21-65 years) in this study. All 16 patients were diagnostic asymptomatic unenhanced CT or MRI and revealed a well-defined (n = 13), oval (n = 10), mass with heterogeneous (n = 6) or homogeneous density/signal intensity (n = 7), calcification and hemorrhage was no found in any cases. On enhanced CT/MRI, markedly enhancement patterns (n = 14) were observed. The "peripheral enhancement" sign was observed in 13 cases. One in 16 cases recurrence was discovered during the follow-up period.
