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

Perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) is a rare mesenchymal uterine tumor and the histological variant, sclerosing PEComa is exceedingly rare. Sclerosing PEComas preferentially occur in the retroperitoneum and occurrence in the uterine corpus is seldom seen. These tumors pose a diagnostic challenge and need distinction from morphological mimickers such as epithelioid smooth muscle tumors, endometrial stromal sarcoma, and metastatic carcinoma. Accurate diagnosis can be established coupling histomorphology with immunostaining. The distinction from other entities is of prime importance considering the therapeutic and prognostic implications. Herein, we describe a case of uterine sclerosing variant of PEComa with diagnostic difficulties and key to diagnose this entity.
