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: Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a malignant soft tissue tumor that accounts for approximately one-half of soft tissue sarcomas in childhood age groups. Metastatic RMS is a rare condition that occurs in less than 25% of patients at diagnosis and can have variable clinical presentations. Case presentation: Here we report a 17-year-old boy with history of weight loss, fever and generalized bone pain admitted for severe hypercalcemia. The definite diagnosis of RMS was performed with immune-phenotyping of the metastatic lymph-node biopsy. The primary tumor site was not found. His bone scan showed diffuse bone metastasis and significant soft tissue technetium uptake due to extra-osseous calcification. Conclusion: Metastatic RMS can mimic lymphoproliferative disorders at presentation. Clinicians must be aware of this diagnosis especially in young adults.
