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

Abdominal lipoblastomas are uncommon soft tissue tumors in children and rarely arise from the mesentery. Due to intraabdominal location and slow growth, these masses can go unnoticed for long periods of time and often found on surgical exploration. We present a case of a 12-year-old male with years of abdominal distension accompanied by new onset early satiety that was found to have an intra-abdominal mass. He underwent an exploratory laparotomy revealing a large 33 x 27 x 15 cm rubbery mesenteric mass displacing the entire intra-abdominal contents, connected by a single vascular pedicle and encasing a loop of small intestine. The mass was resected and the patient did well without signs of recurrence. Histology confirmed the presence of mature adipocytes but on further cytogenetic analysis, a translocation between chromosomes 2 and 8 at the 12q arm was detected, which is often associated with lipoblastomas. This case represents the one of the largest mesenteric lipoblastomas that matured extensively to lipoma-like histology at the time of surgical resection.
