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

Angiosarcoma is a rare type of soft tissue cancer with several clinical presentations and a poor prognosis. We present a case of a 75-year-old man who was admitted due to anemia and fatigue. The patient had undergone an endovascular repair (EVAR) of a 9 cm infrarenal aneurysm of the abdominal aorta two months ago. A computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen on admission indicated a Type-II endoleak and a large hematoma of the left psoas muscle with multiple sites of intramuscular extravasation. Osseous metastases were found at the head of the left femoral head and at the iliac bones. A CT guided biopsy of the femoral head revealed an angiosarcoma of unknown primary site a few days after the patient had died from intra-alveolar hemorrhage caused by lung metastases.
