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

Carcinoid tumors in pregnant women are rare, and there have been no previous studies of atypical carcinoid tumor reported in pregnancy. Also, pseudomesotheliomatous manifestation in atypical carcinoid is an extremely rare finding, there being only two cases reported. Here, we present the first case of pseudomesotheliomatous manifestation of atypical carcinoid in a pregnant woman. Upon image analysis, we found that atypical carcinoids with multiple metastatic lesions can exhibit variability in vascularity and metabolism, resulting in heterogeneous image characteristics among metastatic lesions, even those with identical histology. In addition, even with extensive metastasis, patients can exhibit good performance explained by long-standing presentation of indolent cancer.
