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 65-year-old female patient has a history of malignant triton tumour of the right upper lobe of the lung. She underwent right upper lobectomy and lymphadenectomy in May 2018. She presented in November 2019 with pathological fracture of the left proximal femur. It was not associated with neurofibromatosis. We decided to do an excisional biopsy of the mass and proximal femoral replacement followed by radiotherapy. Four months later, she presented with local recurrence. We organised a multidisciplinary team between the orthopaedic, histopathology and oncology teams. Then, we decided to treat her with chemotherapy. After 2 months of follow-up, she responded well to the chemotherapy with no further deterioration of her condition.
