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

We encountered an uncommon case of a non-seminomatous germ cell tumor with solitary bone metastasis at the initial presentation. A 30-year-old male patient with testicular cancer underwent an orchidectomy and was diagnosed with non-seminoma. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography detected an isolated metastatic lesion in the right sacral wing, which disappeared after a series of chemotherapy. En-bloc surgical resection was performed as curative local treatment, and the patient was able to perform his activities of daily living with no apparent recurrence. Therefore, this surgical method is considered safe and beneficial for the treatment of sacral wing lesions.
