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

Anal canal neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) with pagetoid spread (PS) is a rare disease, and its treatment strategy remains unclear. The prognosis of anal canal NEC with PS is poor. Resection margin status is very important for anorectal carcinoma because it affects survival. When accompanied by PS, the defect of the resulting perineal wound following radical surgical intervention may be necessarily enlarged to ensure the appropriate margin status. This case report discusses the treatment of a patient with advanced anal canal NEC with PS, inguinal lymph node metastasis and sphincter infiltration in which total pelvic exenteration with plastic surgery was successfully performed. The plastic surgery incorporated a gracilis muscle flap that was useful for the reconstruction of the enlarged perineal defect.
