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

Spindle cell lipoma is a rare histological variant of lipoma accounting for 1.5% of adipocytes tumors. It is composed of an admixture of mature adipocytes and fibroblast-like spindle cells in a myxoid stroma. Retroperitoneal atypical spindle cell lipomatous tumor are extremely rare only a single report in the literature reported. Herein we describe a case of a giant lipomatous tumor that was causing partial bowel obstruction. Successful excision with en block resection of the tumor, distal ureter and posterior wall of the bladder was achieved by teamwork between gastrointestinal surgeons and Urologist. The bladder defect was repaired, and left ureteric reimplantation was done. The patient made a good recovery with excellent progress. He has resumed his normal activities as a farmer.
