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

Ewing's sarcoma is an aggressive tumour, common in paediatric age, in which treatment often implies a decrease in reproductive potential. We describe a case of a woman who had a lumbar Ewing's Sarcoma in 1991, at the age of 8. She was submitted to extended tumourectomy, chemotherapy and local radiotherapy without preservation techniques. In adult life, and after two in vitro fertilization (IVF) reproductive cycles without success, she spontaneously conceived at the age of 32. After an uneventful pregnancy, she delivered a healthy child by caesarean section. This is a rare successful case of a spontaneous and uneventful pregnancy without previous preservation techniques. In the last 30 years, there has been significant development in this area, and currently, there are solutions for these patients, including in prepubertal age.
