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

Myopericytoma is an uncommon, slow-growing benign tumour of concentrically distributed perivascular myoid cells, that occurs generally in the skin and superficial soft tissues especially in distal extremities. In the visceral organs, it is particularly rare. We provide the first report of this rare entity in the stomach. A 45-year-male presented to an outside hospital because of pharyngalgia and cough 10 days prior. Endoscopic ultrasonography revealed a 0.92 cm × 0.92 cm hypoechoic lesion in the submucosa of sinuses ventriculi. For further diagnosis and treatment, the patient came to our hospital, and underwent endoscopic submucosal excavation (ESE), without adjuvant therapy. Postoperative pathology was myopericytoma. No recurrence was found in the follow-up of 27 months. In conclusion, myopericytoma is a comparatively newly described disease entity approved by the World Health Organization classification for tumours of soft tissue. The present report shows the first case of myopericytoma of the stomachto remind clinicians and pathologists that myopericytoma may be encountered at this location.
