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 52-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with several days of progressive dyspnoea and thoracic pain. Her medical history included a (recurrent) anaplastic meningioma, for which she was treated with surgery and radiotherapy. A chest X-ray showed occurrence of total opacification of the left lower lobe and a chest computed tomography demonstrated a pleural mass of 12 × 9 × 15 cm in the left lower lobe. Biopsy of the pleural mass revealed a metastasis of the patient's anaplastic meningioma. Extracranial metastases from meningioma are extremely uncommon (≤ 0.1%-0.2% of cases), but important for a patient's prognosis.
