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

Lipoblastoma is an extremely rare disease and mostly affects the infant to pediatric age group. Primarily, it involves the extremities, head and neck region, and rarely, the retroperitoneal region. Retroperitoneal lipoblastoma mainly presents with either abdominal pain or distension. We report a case of a 24-year-old male who presented with acute cord compression and underwent decompression and fixation with biopsy. Histopathology established the presence of lipoblastoma. Further staging workup showed no metastasis. Immunostaining and cytogenetics were positive for CD34 and negative for desmin, DNA damage-inducible transcript 3 (DDIT3), mouse double minute 2 (MDM2)(12q15), and pleomorphic adenoma gene 1 (PLAG1). The patient underwent resection of the retroperitoneal mass with intraoperative radiation therapy to the tumor bed. The histopathology identified the mass as retroperitoneal lipoblastoma. The postoperative course was uneventful and CT images showed no recurrence or metastasis. This was a unique case of retroperitoneal lipoblastoma in an adult with a unique clinical presentation.
