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

BACKGROUND Malignant rhabdoid tumors are rare and aggressive pediatric tumors that usually arise in the kidney and have a characteristic appearance on histology. Extrarenal malignant rhabdoid tumors originating in the liver are extremely rare. This report is of a 5-month-old girl who presented with a rapidly enlarging abdominal mass due to a malignant rhabdoid tumor of the liver. CASE REPORT A 5-month-old female patient with no known medical history had been experiencing increasing abdomen distention and less overall activity for 1 month, according to her parents. Abdominal ultrasonography was used for diagnostic purposes, and the results showed the presence of a mass with a solid and cystic appearance in the upper left quadrant of the abdomen. The patient was transferred to a tertiary care hospital for further investigations. The laboratory test results indicated a hemoglobin level of 8.2 g/dL, and the liver function tests were within the reference range. However, the serum tumor marker alpha-fetoprotein level was 1310 ng/mL, while the b-human chorionic gonadotropin was within range. Computed tomography detected a nonspecific heterogeneous mass of the liver. Histopathology revealed discohesive cells with rich eosinophilic cytoplasm, eccentric nuclei, and large central nucleoli (rhabdoid appearance). Immunohistochemistry showed negative integrase interactor 1 protein expression. The diagnosis was a primary malignant rhabdoid tumor located in the liver. CONCLUSIONS This report shows the importance of combined diagnostic imaging and histopathology analysis to confirm the diagnosis of rare pediatric tumors, including malignant rhabdoid tumor, to ensure early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
