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

Context: Multiple tumors in the same patient suggest a genetic predisposition. Here, we report a patient who presented with several unusual types of malignant and benign tumors, presumably due to a pathogenic germline Case: A 69-year-old woman presented with a 2-year history of abdominal pain and diarrhea. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen revealed a gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumor (GiNET) with liver metastases and a nonfunctional benign adrenal adenoma. Bilateral large lung nodules were thought to be also metastases from the GiNET but turned out to be differentiated thyroid cancer metastases, which later progressed to anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) and led to the patient's demise. A right sphenoid wing meningioma causing partial hypopituitarism was diagnosed during her evaluation. A mammogram and a breast ultrasound revealed a 0.3-cm left breast nodule. Due to the multiplicity of her tumors, whole exome sequencing was performed. This revealed a previously described Conclusion: This case reports several tumors including thyroid cancer, GiNET, adrenal adenoma, meningioma, and breast nodule, likely due to the
