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 report two cases of epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) in the distal lower extremity. Our first patient had unicentric EHE of the left os calcis initially treated with an intralesional procedure; however, later developed two recurrences which were managed with radiation therapy. Our second patient had multicentric EHE of the distal tibia and fibula managed with primary radiation therapy. Although EHE is typically treated with wide resection or an intralesional procedure, we present two cases of EHE in the distal lower extremity to discuss the therapeutic role of radiation therapy in the management of distal EHE.
