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

Spinal epidural metastasis(SEM) from cervical cancer is extremely rare, with only 6 cases reported in the literature, including our reported 2 cases. SEM mostly occurs in poorly differentiated carcinoma. Hematogenous spread is the primary mechanism of SEM from cervical cancer. The patients with SEM usually present with a range of clinical manifestations of nervous system because of spinal cord compression. SEM from cervical cancer indicates a late event with a poor prognosis. Local treatments mainly include surgery decompression and radiotherapy. Combining local and systemic therapy might be a better choice to prolong survival.
