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

backgroundMetaplastic thymoma (MT) is a very uncommon thymoma type, with biphasic differentiation as one of its histological characteristics. This histological pattern, however, can also be mistaken for type A thymoma and the A component in type AB thymoma.

methodsPostoperative specimens were collected from five MT and four type A thymomas with a retrospective analysis involving immunohistochemistry, fluorescence

resultsThe histological morphology of the MT overlapped with that of the type A thymoma. With immunostains, the former's spindle cell components expressed vimentin and EMA, but not CD20. In MT, 3/5 cases had the nuclear expression of YAP1. The spindle cell component of the type A thymoma was found to express CD20. In all five cases of MT, FISH detection revealed

conclusionsFor the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of challenging cases, the
