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

Intramuscular lipoma is a rare soft-tissue tumor with an overall incidence of less than 1% of all lipomas. It primarily occurs in the trunk and proximal parts of the upper and lower extremities. Intramuscular lipoma of the soleus muscle has not been reported before in the English literature and the best treatment option is not known. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the details of endoscopically assisted resection of intramuscular lipoma of the soleus. This is indicated for well demarcated intramuscular lipoma of the soleus and is contraindicated in infiltrating intramuscular lipoma. Besides the advantage of minimally invasive surgery, this endoscopic technique allows en bloc resection of the intramuscular lipoma.
