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

backgroundInflammatory pseudotumor-like follicular dendritic cell sarcoma is a rare histological variant of follicular dendritic cell sarcoma involving typically the spleen and the liver, often linked to the presence of Epstein-Barr virus infection. Definite diagnosis of this type of sarcoma is difficult to make owing to nonspecific clinical and imaging findings and is based on histopathological features. Inflammatory pseudotumor-like follicular dendritic cell sarcoma is described as a low-aggressivity tumor with a favorable prognosis. CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of a 34-year-old Caucasian woman, Epstein-Barr virus positive, diagnosed with hepatic inflammatory pseudotumor-like follicular dendritic cell sarcoma and surgically treated in November 2014, who developed 6 years later a recurrence for which she underwent once again surgical treatment. As far as we know, fewer than 30 reports of inflammatory pseudotumor-like follicular dendritic cell liver tumors have been reported in the English literature.

conclusionsAlthough it is an uncommon tumor, inflammatory pseudotumor-like sarcoma is a diagnostic worth being taken in consideration, and surveillance is recommended owing to the possibility of recurrence.
