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

Mixed neuroendocrine nonneuroendocrine neoplasms (MiNENs) are rare neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract, where the neuroendocrine as well as the nonneuroendocrine components each comprise at least 30% of the tumor. Of all cases of colorectal malignancies, MiNENs constitute around 3-9.6%, with only a few cases reported to be arising in the cecum. Since majority present with nonspecific clinical and radiological findings, its diagnosis preoperatively is almost impossible and these are usually diagnosed after histopathological examination of the resected specimen. Owing to the rarity of these tumors as well as lack of complete molecular characterization, optimal treatment remains unestablished. We, here, report a rare case of MiNENs of the cecum infiltrating the right psoas muscle and presenting with perforation for which right hemicolectomy and en bloc excision of the involved psoas muscle was done followed by adjuvant chemotherapy.
