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.
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
Primary synovial sarcoma is exceedingly rare in the mediastinum. The differential diagnosis of this rare tumor is complex as a wide array of primary and metastatic tumors occur in this site.A definite diagnosis might be challenging even after tissue sampling. Immunohistochemistry can be very helpful and supportive for the diagnosis, but still inadequate in some cases as these tumors can mimic histopathologically other soft tissue tumors. Hence, in some case, an advanced pathological molecular analysis is needed.Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is an important diagnostic tool for mediastinal tumors. While EUS-fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) samples are usually inadequate for advanced pathological analysis, tissue acquisition by the newer generation of EUS-fine needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) needles might be sufficient.Here, we present the first report on primary mediastinal synovial sarcoma diagnosed by an immunohistochemical and FISH analysis performed on EUS-FNB tissue sample.
