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

Tumors of the follicular dendritic cells (FDC-Sarcoma) represent a rare entity with only about 200 cases reported worldwide. The majority (60%) of cases arise primarily in cervical, abdominal or axillar lymph nodes, but extra nodal origin from secondary lymphatic tissue like the tonsils, Waldeyer's ring or MALT is also common (40%). The current report presents a characteristic course of a cervical FDC-Sarcoma, with its challenges in establishing the initial diagnosis and the struggle for therapeutic options. The FDC-Sarcoma presented recurrently for four times. Three different university hospitals in Germany were involved in the patients' treatment. Due to the patients' refusal, no adjuvant therapy was applied. In the end, a neck dissection was performed. The patient was closely followed up and has been recurrence-free for 10 years. This case suggests operative resection in combination with a neck dissection as a curative therapy for FDC-Sarcoma of the head and neck.
