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

Placental-site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT) is a rare pathological entity included in the spectrum of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). It is a neoplasia with metastatic potential that, once metastasized, has poor prognosis because the tumor tends to be less sensitive to chemotherapy. We present a rare case of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia, in which hysterectomy for persistent gestational trophoblastic disease after hydatidiform mole, revealed a primary PSTT in the uterus. Subsequently, a slight persistent elevation of the beta fraction of human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (B-hCG) during follow-up revealed the presence of bone metastases. This location is not usual from this tumor, being even more rare the case of PSTT with isolated bone metastases. Metastasic foci were only identified with PET-CT since the usual diagnostic resources were not able to do it. Finally, it is also remarkable in our case that the treatment required the confluence of chemotherapy together with immunotherapy to achieve a favorable response.
