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

backgroundPulmonary artery sarcoma (PAS) is a rare and fatal malignancy. Due to the lack of specific clinical and radiological features, PAS is always misdiagnosed as pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). This study aimed to investigate

methodsClinical, contrast-enhanced CT, and

resultsThe SUVmax of PAS (median: 8.0, range 3.0-17.2) was significantly higher than PTE (1.8[0.8-3.7]) (P < 0.001), and at a cutoff value of 2.9, the sensitivity and specificity were 100.0% and 93.9%, respectively. Compared with PTE, PAS more frequently occurred in younger population (P = 0.011), involved pulmonary trunk (P < 0.001), and displayed higher enhanced CT (P < 0.001) and ΔCT (enhanced CT compared to non-enhanced CT) (P < 0.001) values. SUVmax of PAS was associated with tumor staging (P = 0.022) and enhanced CT (P = 0.013) and ΔCT (P = 0.005) values. The median OS of PAS patients was 10.5 months, and 12-month and 24-month OS rates were 58.0% and 12.0%, respectively. Only D-dimer level (P = 0.038) and tumor staging (P = 0.019) were associated with OS.
