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

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare type of tumor composed mainly of fibroblastic and myofibroblastic spindle cells, with an inflammatory infiltrate of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and eosinophils. IMT may arise from different organs and sites, but it is infrequent to arise from the urinary bladder and usually manifests as hematuria. We report a case of a 24-year-old pregnant woman who presented to our hospital with gross hematuria. After further workup, we concluded that she had this extremely rare tumor, which was resected eventually with a partial cystectomy. Although the diagnosis of these kinds of tumors is usually made by anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) using immunohistochemistry and detecting ALK gene translocation using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), they were negative in our study; hence, we relied mainly on the morphological features of the tumor for the diagnosis.
