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

The report outlines a case of synovial sarcoma in the scrotal region. A 36-year-old male presented with a scrotal swelling. The lesion was completely resected, whereas the histopathologic examination revealed a spindle cell tumor. The tumor stained positive for pancytokeratin, AE1/AE3, epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), TLE-1, CD99, and BCL-2. The cytogenetic testing showed a chromosomal translocation in the SS18 gene at 18q11.2, consistent with the diagnosis of primary synovial sarcoma. A year later, the patient developed liver, vertebrae, and lung metastasis, which was treated with systemic chemotherapy. Treatment failed to improve the hepatic lesion that was then resected, while the spine and lung lesions were followed by radiotherapy. The patient is now alive and subject to an outstanding follow-up.
