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

Background: Spindle cell hemangioma previously known as spindle cell hemangioendothelioma is a benign vascular tumour with rare presentation in head and neck. Presentation in lip is even rarer with three cases reported previously. Method: This report describes a case of spindle cell hemangioma presented as an asymptomatic growth on lower lip of a 32-year-old male. Clinicopathological characterization of this case along with previously reported 15 cases of spindle cell hemangioma of head and neck were conducted. Result: Microscopic evaluation shows a well-circumscribed vascular neoplasm of spindled and epithelioid endothelial cells. Large ectatic thin-walled vascular spaces were seen engorged with RBCs. The neoplasm was CD31 positive. Slight predilection for female gender and young age were observed. Minimal possibility of recurrence was also observed. Conclusion: Spindle cell hemangioma needs to be considered in the differential diagnosis of vascular tumours of head and neck to avoid misdiagnosis of aggressive vascular neoplasms.
