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

backgroundNeuromuscular choristoma (NMC) is a rare congenital lesion in which muscle tissue is admixed with nerve fascicles within a peripheral nerve. Patients commonly present in early childhood with neuropathy, plexopathy, or chronic undergrowth in the distribution of the affected nerve. OBSERVATIONS: The authors present the case of a 35-year-old man with unrecognized neuromuscular NMC of the sciatic nerve, which resulted in recurrent, multicentric NMC-associated desmoid-type fibromatosis (NMC-DTF) within the nerve territory in association with a Marjolin ulcer, a cutaneous malignancy. LESSONS: Based on anatomical and pathophysiological findings described in this case report, the authors support the association between NMC-DTF and Marjolin ulcer.
