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

objectiveTo describe the findings of an unusual splenic tumor in a kitten.

methodsA grossly multinodular mass arising from the splenic capsule of a 7-month-old male Havana kitten was echographically detected and surgically removed by splenectomy, then analyzed microscopically and ultrastructurally.

resultsThe mass showed features of an inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor. TREATMENT AND OUTCOME: Two months after surgical excision, the mass recurred in the same intra-abdominal area but disappeared after 2 months of anti-inflammatory therapy. Follow-up at 18 months after surgery revealed resolution of the disease. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor in cats have been rarely reported and are usually in the orbital region. In the present report, an unusual multinodular gross presentation, a recurrence over time, and a favorable clinical course, are described.
