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

Solitary fibrous tumors are rare mesenchymal neoplasms that can range from slow-growing to aggressive tumors. This report presents a unique case of a young male patient with a solitary fibrous tumor involving the seminal vesicle, a rare location, and reinforces incidental discovery of these tumors on imaging and physical exams. Detection of these tumors is imperative to identify and treat malignancy. In our case, a 39-year-old previously healthy Asian male presents to the emergency department as a trauma admission post bicycle crash and is incidentally found to have a pelvic mass on computed tomography imaging of the pelvis. The patient underwent trans-anal biopsy which showed spindle epithelioid cells positive for CD34 and STAT6 markers, with a morphological and immunohistochemical profile consistent with a solitary fibrous tumor. The patient underwent surgery with a robotic-assisted laparoscopic pelvic mass resection and now follows up annually with imaging for observation.
