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

Here, we report a case of primary angiosarcoma of the ascending colon diagnosed after the discovery of an oral tumor. An 86-year-old woman presented to our hospital with severe anemia. Although she did not report any oral symptoms, an intraoral mass 15 mm in size with ulceration was observed. Since colonic tumors and osteolytic tumors in the maxilla and sacra were also identified by fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET), colonoscopy was performed. A semi-peripheral tumor with ulceration from the cecum to the ascending colon was detected. Biopsies of the oral cavity and colon revealed a poorly differentiated tumor, and multiple additional immunohistochemical stains were performed to confirm the diagnosis of angiosarcoma. Angiosarcoma progresses rapidly and has a very poor prognosis. Hence, although it is rare, angiosarcoma should always be considered in the differential diagnoses of malignancy of the gastrointestinal tract.
