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

Leiomyosarcoma of the uterus (ULMS) is a rare malignant tumor originating from embryonic mesenchymal cells. ULMS tends to metastasize to the lungs, lymph nodes, liver, and bone. Computed tomography three-dimensional (CT 3D) imaging is an advanced diagnostic technique that can track the vessels and their relationships with tumors and reveal the invasion of vessels, including small vessels, around tumors in any slice. Here, we describe a case in which ULMS extended to the retrohepatic inferior vena cava. To date, no report has described resection of metastatic ULMS of the vena cava through supplemental CT 3D imaging. Our patient presented with right lumbar abdominal pain as the main symptom. After using CT 3D reconstruction to accurately assess the relationship between the tumor and the surrounding organs and blood vessels before the operation, the operation was successfully completed through multidisciplinary surgical collaboration.
