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

Primary cardiac angiosarcoma is relatively rare, and most cases involve metastasis at the time of diagnosis. The median survival time is 14 months for patients who can be treated surgically, versus 3.8 ± 2.5 months for patients with metastasis who could not undergo surgery. Radical surgical resection, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy are the main treatments, but prognosis remains poor because of rapid progression and high recurrence and metastasis rates. At present, there is no unified standard treatment, and selecting the correct treatment plan and improving patient survival and quality of life remain challenging. We have reported the case of a 45-year-old woman with a primary heart tumor that infiltrated the right atrial wall and pericardium. Angiosarcoma was verified histologically. After palliative resection of the primary tumor followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy and targeted therapy, the patient exhibited overall survival of 23 months, highlighting the potential utility of this treatment strategy.
