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

A 49-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of haemoptysis for 6 days. This patient claimed no medical history except high blood sugar. Chest computed tomography (CT) showed infection and multiple nodules on both sides of the lung. Blood tests showed no obvious abnormalities. Tracheoscopy showed haemorrhagic discharge in the left upper lobe and an old thrombus obstructing the lumen in the anterior basal segment of the right lower lobe. Then, CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy was performed. The pathological results suggested multiple nodular-like lesions in the submitted tissues, and tumour cells were round or short fusiform, forming a solid nest structure, visible mitosis, and a vascular cavity-like structure containing red blood cells. Immunohistochemistry revealed positive staining for Vimentin, Bcl-2, CD31, and CD34; negative staining for CD68, SMA, CR, and D2-40; and 40% Ki67+ positivity. Based on the earlier data, the patient was diagnosed with pulmonary epithelioid haemangioendothelioma. This patient did not receive any treatment for several reasons. Unfortunately, the patient died 8 weeks after diagnosis. In conclusion, we present a case featuring the rapid death due to PEH.
