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

A 55-year-old woman presented with a history of constitutional symptoms with exertional dyspnea, orthopnea, and cough for one month. She developed progressive heart failure symptoms. Initial computed tomography revealed a large left atrial mass with compression of pulmonary veins and mitral valve. Surgical resection was performed, and histologic examination revealed an intimal sarcoma. The most effective treatment has been found to be a surgical resection, with chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The objective of this report is to describe a common presentation of a rare disease, and to discuss the significance of appropriate diagnosis, pathological findings, and timely interventional management. <
