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

Castleman's disease (CD) is a rare atypical lymphoproliferation disorder first reported in 1954. Clinically, CD is classified as unicentric or multicentric CD based on anatomical distribution. Unicentric CD primarily affects the mediastinum, and rarely affects the retroperitoneal location. The standard treatment for unicentric CD is complete surgical resection; however, this can be complicated by a high degree of attachment with other organs or hypervascularity. Preoperative angiography and embolization of the arteries that feed the problematic mass can reduce intraoperative bleeding in cases of CD with hypervascularity. In the present case report, a 44-year-old man who was found to have a pelvic retroperitoneal mass with calcification based on abdominal imaging results is discussed. Due to the hypervascularity of the mass, preoperative embolization was performed. The mass was completely resected without any complications. Additionally, a review of the literature on pelvic CD and preoperative embolization of CD was performed to provide an up-to-date reference on the management and outcomes of patients with CD.
