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

Primary clear cell carcinoma of the vagina (PCCAV) is a rare form of vaginal cancer that typically affects young women with a history of prenatal exposure to DES. However, data on non-DES PCCAV cases are limited. This report describes a case of PCCAV in a 47-year-old patient who presented with post-coital bleeding and was diagnosed with clear cell adenocarcinoma via biopsy and MRI. The patient had no history of DES exposure and further testing showed no signs of metastasis, leading to surgery and chemotherapy. Four years later, the patient presented with dyspnea, and a chest CT scan revealed a lung nodule, later confirmed to be a metastasis of clear cell adenocarcinoma from the vaginal cancer. The patient passed away a month later due to complications from COVID-19.
