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

introductionEwing's sarcoma is a Primary Neuroectodermal Tumour (PNET) commonly affecting appendicular skeleton. The involvement of axial skeleton is very rare and that too of cervical spine is rarest. We present a case of Ewing's sarcoma involving cervical spine managed surgically, and its outcome. CASE PRESENTATION: A 26-year-old male presented with 3-month history of neck pain and progressive motor weakness for 1 week. After clinical evaluation of sign and symptoms, MRI of cervical spine revealed a posterior neck mass over C2, C3 and C4. Because of mass effect and spinal cord compression, early surgical intervention was deemed necessary to stop progression of neurological deficit and make tissue diagnosis of lesion. On histopathological examination diagnosis of Ewing sarcoma was made. PET-CT showed C2 and C3 as primary site of involvement with no other site of involvement. DISCUSSION: The Ewing's Sarcoma of the cervical spine is a rare occurrence and usually present in late and advanced stage. High index of suspicion should be present to make early diagnosis and prevent complications.
