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

A woman in her 70s presented with a small subcutaneous retrosacrococcygeal mass and a history of elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate present for several years. It was misdiagnosed as an inflammatory process of unclear origin. She underwent further investigation with the appearance of weight loss and weakness. A sacrococcygeal mass was noted on CT scan. A core needle biopsy was inconclusive for chordoma versus myoepithelioma. Wide surgical resection of the tumour including the coccygeal bone was performed. Following surgery, all the systemic symptoms resolved with normalisation of inflammatory markers. The pathological examination showed a relatively circumscribed multinodular myxoid tumour with lymphatic tissue cuff. Pan-sarcoma fusion analysis detected an EWSR1 (Exon7)-CREB1 (Exon7) fusion gene. The lesion was diagnosed as angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma with paraneoplastic syndrome presentation of several years' duration.
